On-Campus Housing Options
You have a variety of living options to choose from on campus. First years are generally housed in traditional residence halls, while upperclass students can choose to live in traditional housing, apartment/suite style housing, or independent living in one of our College-owned houses. Our residence halls offer all-gender floors, gendered floors, and all-female living spaces. If you’re looking for a housing option that suits your interests, you can also choose to live in one of our special interest options, such as foreign languages, religious groups, sustainability, and animal welfare.
