LIVING ON CAMPUS
STUDENTS VOTE SVSU DORMS #1 IN MICHIGAN
HOME AWAY FROM HOME
Students love SVSU because it truly feels like a home away from home. Nestled in a nature preserve within the Great Lakes Bay region, our campus is centrally located between Bay City, Frankenmuth, Midland, and Saginaw. With a beautiful setting dedicated to student success, SVSU offers a campus where students thrive both academically and personally. And when they’re not in class, they return to the highest-ranked dorms in the nation.
