At Lawrence, we believe that residential living enhances your education. 

When you live where you learn, you learn where you live. That’s why we believe living on campus for a minimum of 4 years is critical to our students' success. We offer a wide variety of living options and excellent staff to help you cultivate meaningful, engaging, and unique residential experiences. 

Because life in the residence halls is as integral to your education as classroom learning, we encourage you to become an active participant in your living community. Choose from residence halls, apartment-style and group housing. No matter your choice, challenge yourself to learn from people who are different than you.
