Abstract
The importance of transition and adjustment of students in the first year is interesting to study, and this paper examines the role of campus dormitories in assisting first year students in their transition and adjustment. There are several articles on reviews of transitions and adjustment of first-year students to be found. The purpose of this review is to find out the role of dormitories in the transition and adjustment period of first year students. Based on the results of a literature review, we found that campus dormitories can help students in transitioning and adjusting to their first year.

Summary
Transition and adjustment from high school to college is a complex process for almost all students in their first-year college. Transition is described as a “cultural shock involving significant social and psychological re-learning in the face of encounters with new ideas, new teachers and friends with sufficiently varied values and beliefs, new freedom and opportunities, and new academic, personal and social demands" [23]. Life transition, such as moving from home to college, create valuable opportunities for growth and change while potentially increasing self-doubt and disappointment, and even encouraging self-defeating habits [10]. Because adjustment reflects the association between the individual and the environment, it is necessary to understand the transition, and adjustment to it, by examining characteristics of the environment and individuals endeavors to adjust within it [26]
