Living on Campus
REAL. AMAZING.
Why should you live on campus? Convenient Living on campus puts you at the center of daily university life! On campus you’re a short walk away from classes, professors, the library, academic resources, recreation facilities, a Rangers game or an organization meeting. All classes are less than a 10 minute walk away so you can roll out of bed, brush your teeth and head off to class.
Affordable Living on campus is a great value. It’s easy to budget when you know exactly what your expenses will be. In the halls there are no additional charges for phone, internet or cable TV. There are no deposits or hidden costs.
Educational Students who live on campus tend to: • have a higher GPA • be more involved on campus • graduate The residence hall staff is committed to your academic success and plans programs on topics such as improving study skills and time management. Education does not stop outside of the classroom walls.
Fun! Living on campus puts you right in the middle of the action and the fun. The opportunities to participate in educational, cultural, social and physical activities and events are endless.
