Home Sweet Home
When you’re here, you’re home. We keep saying it because we mean it. College is a time of big transitions and for many students, it’s their first experience living away from home. Not only do we want the transition to be smooth, we're committed to creating communities of respect, care and support where all members are celebrated and welcomed.
The Details
We’re a highly residential campus with approximately 2,500 students living on campus each year, meaning you’ve got a built-in community right here on campus. From the sprawling South Fork Suites to the newly-renovated May Hall, we feature 11 residence halls designed to provide you with a terrific residential experience.
We’re Vibrant
Our residence halls are vibrant communities bursting with opportunities to participate in floor and hall programs. Resident Assistants and residence life staff plan a variety of social and educational events throughout the year, creating plenty of chances for you to meet people and develop bonds with your hall or floormates. We’re also home to a variety of Living and Learning Communities, including first-year, honors, healthy living and gender inclusive communities, that you can choose to reside in.
We’re Safe
Residence hall doors are locked 24/7 with the exception of designated move-in and move-out times. Resident Assistants monitor student safety, residence life staff is on call each evening to respond to emergencies and University Police are also available around the clock for emergencies and crisis response.
