Our Residence Halls
Our freshman residence halls are either traditional residential hall style or suite-style accommodations. These buildings offer a variety of amenities including wireless internet, game rooms, exercise rooms, computer clusters, dining halls and retail food options. Students living in these communities have the opportunity to make friends by taking part in various programs enhancing their university experience beyond just academic learning. Each building has its own personality, and all of our buildings are a great place to live and to call "home". Explore each of our facilities by selecting the links below. Please check out our "What To Pack" and "What Not To Pack" recommendation lists.

Vacation Housing:
Vacation housing for incoming freshmen will be in either McCoy or Wolman Hall (to be determined) for the 12-13 academic year (9-month contract). These areas will not close during the Thanksgiving or Spring breaks, but will close during the Winter break, between the fall semester and the beginning of intersession. There will be an RA on duty during the breaks but the dining halls will be closed. Incoming freshmen may request vacation housing, and we do our best to meet these requests, however placement in Vacation Housing is not guaranteed.
Substance-Free Housing is available in AMR I (2nd Floor Vincent & Willard Houses - approx. 30 spaces) with a 9-month contract.
Students who pledge to live a substance free lifestyle have the opportunity to live with other students in an environment free of alcohol, tobacco products and other substances. This community is designed to ensure a substance free living environment where students will actively participate in a healthy lifestyle, with activities and programs that support this wellness philosophy. The students will sign a substance free pledge. The goal is to create common bonds that help strengthen the community while preserving and encouraging individuality and diversity. Next year’s location for freshmen will be the 2nd Floor Vincent/Willard House in AMR I.
Please note that all of our residence halls are smoke free. Also note that illegal drug use is prohibited in all of our residence halls and students under the age of 21 are not permitted to consume alcohol.
