The RSI on its facilities will be compared between students who stay outside the campus and students who stay inside the campus, and also among the 2genders. The study uses a survey based on the questionnaire administered to280 respondents (undergraduate students) who stayed at a hostel provided by a university in Malaysia. By using descriptive analysis, the levels of satisfaction among the respondents (undergraduate students) on the hostel facilities are identified and examined. The data analysis indicates that the levels of satisfaction between undergraduate students are mixed.
