Student Residences
A Transformative Experience
The Office of Residential Life provides a dynamic, student-centered experience and a variety of accommodation styles. We, at the Office of Residential Life, tailor programming for different phases of the academic cycle and student growth, from first-year through graduate studies, and offer support and referrals to ensure a holistic residential experience. Study abroad and exchange program students, too, are welcomed and integrated into the living-learning community. Through targeted outreach and services, the Office of Residential Life aims to develop leadership qualities, academic success, global compassion, community service, and cross-cultural competence.

Student Residences' Programs

Leaving the comfort of my family home was not simple, but it was a true learning experience. In the residence halls, I learned to care for myself and manage my time more efficiently, and I became a stronger, more responsible, independent person. Who would have known the shy girl who depended on her mom for everything would go on to become a sociable person who cooks her own meals? As a graduating senior, it is safe to say that I will truly miss this place, the late-night campus walks, and all it has to offer.

I love the residence halls because they’re inside the uni so it’s easy for me to go to classes. I love the people that live here; they’re very helpful. Living here makes me more independent.
