Residence Life System

The University residence life system is composed of five residence halls located on the main campus. Priority in housing is generally reserved for full-time undergraduate students enrolled in the day division. Remaining housing, based on the availability of space, may be assigned to graduate and part-time students. The residence halls are not equipped to handle family housing. First-time and transfer students may apply for housing through the Office of Admissions. All other students may apply for housing through the Office of Residence Life. Assignments are made by the residence hall staff.

Cory Bretz Hall, located on the northwest corner of the campus, is coeducational residence hall with a capacity for housing 96 women and 140 men on three floors. The building is completely equipped to handle the physically challenged. Separate elevators serve the female and male wings.

Cravens Hall, an all-female hall located on the south side of Hanna Avenue, has the capacity to house 164 women on three floors. The BUILD program, operated by the Academic Success Center, is located on the lower level of the building. Cravens Hall is not equipped with an elevator; therefore, access to the hall is limited. The Fine Arts Society, which broadcasts over WICR at 88.7 FM, also has offices in Cravens Hall.

New Hall, a coeducational facility located on the north side of the campus, has a capacity for housing 54 women and 100 men on three floors. A special feature is the quad arrangement, in which four rooms share a common living area. The hall has an elevator that serves the living areas and is accessible to the physically challenged. Warren Hall, a coeducational facility located on the southeast side of campus, has a capacity for housing 144 females and 108 males on five floors. Separate elevators serve the female and male wings. The building is not accessible to the physically challenged.

Central Hall was built in 2001 to house approximately 186 students. Located on the north side of campus between New and Cory Bretz halls, the building features suite-style living arrangements.

These apartments are located adjacent to campus and are reserved for undergraduate students who have resided in the residence life system for at least one year. Assignments are made through the Office of Residence Life. The University maintains the Cummins Apartments, located a block south of the main campus, which are reserved for graduate or married students.
