From apartment-style units and houses to lofts in residence halls, group housing and small residences provide returning students with more kinds of living experiences. Living spaces range in size, anywhere from 7 to 27 beds.

Group Housing

Group housing offers a unique opportunity for you to connect with others. Immerse yourself in a group with common interests or goals. 

Most group housing is located on the Quad, next to Sage Hall and a hop away from Warch Campus Center. Other group housing is located in stand-alone buildings or within special spaces in residence halls such as Sage and Colman.
