Residence Halls

For many, an important part of college life is living on campus in a residence hall. It provides unique opportunities for friendships and activities. Since only a portion of the student body lives on campus, residence hall life offers a small-college atmosphere.

We want your room to be a place where you feel at home, so each one is planned and furnished with that in mind. The residence halls are in three main areas of campus, all within close walking distance of the major facilities. Different locations will appeal to different students. There are co-ed and all-female residence halls; double rooms and suites; high rises and townhouses. There are even on-campus apartments. Although we can't guarantee students get their first choice in room locations, we certainly try our best to accommodate their wishes.

Dining

The campus has a wide variety of eating places, including Robertson Cafe and Break Point at Gallucci Hall. The Student Union houses a food court that includes Subway, Starbucks, Union Market and much more.

Residence Hall students may opt for one of the traditional meal plans ranging from $2,582 a year (10 meals a week) to $2,796 a year (19 per week). The Gold Medal plan, which costs slightly more, allows students to receive credit for unused meals. The credit can be used at any campus restaurant or snack bar.
