Residence Halls
We have many residence halls that offer a variety of living options, including traditional and suite-style halls as well as apartment style housing. All rooms include streaming cable, utilities, laundry (on premises), and Wi-Fi at no additional cost. In the Goethals Apartments, laundry is coin operated and cable service is provided via a wired connection.
Incoming freshmen are assigned to a traditional or suite-style freshman residence hall to enhance the first-year experience. The Center for Student Sucess works closely with these halls to bring unique opportunities to freshman residents. Upperclass residents have the opportunity to select from one of our suite-style or apartment-style residence halls. These halls, through programming and other initiatives, these halls provide environments that promote continued growth and independence.
