Middle Housing Types

Traditional Residence Halls offer multiple occupancy rooms (doubles, triples and quads) that students share with one, two or three other students. Students living in this type of housing share a community bathroom with several toilet stalls, shower stalls and sinks. Traditional residence halls offer single-gender rooms and are coeducational by floor or section. All first-year students live in traditional residence halls.

Single rooms are located in traditional residence halls. Students living in this type of housing do not have a roommate, but still share a community bathroom with other students. There are a limited number of single rooms available (varies by each residence hall) and most are occupied by upper class students.

Suites have two or more multiple-occupancy bedrooms that share a single bathroom. Some suites also have a common room/space that is shared by suite-mates. Most suites are occupied by juniors and seniors.

Apartments have two or more single and/or multiple-occupancy bedrooms that share a single bathroom and living space/kitchen with a locked entry door. Apartment units are designated as all-male or all-female. Most apartments are occupied by seniors.

Satellite Houses have two or more single and/or multiple-occupancy bedrooms that share a single bathroom and living space/kitchen with a locked entry door in a campus-owned house.
