On-Campus Housing

Students can move into their residence at the beginning of each semester and the exact move-in date and time will depend on their residence. Students living in 9-month residences are required to vacate their space at the end of the academic year (May).

Please be advised that not all on-campus residence options are open during University Winter and Spring recess periods. This means that students won’t be able to stay in those residences during breaks, but they will be able to leave their belongings there. We advise looking into the New Gibbons residence on the Cook/Douglass campus or any apartment-style housing options as they are open during the recess periods. All halls will remain open during Thanksgiving Recess.

There are 12 residences on the Cook/Douglass campus. The rates are different depending on the types of residences. For the housing rates and billing information, please visit the Residence Life website. For photos and more information about each residence, please click the name of each residence.
