Future ²ÝݮӰÊÓers
I’m about to enroll at ²ÝݮӰÊÓ and want to explore living on campus.
Graduate Student Housing
New and returning graduate students can also live on campus.
Living Areas
Most resident students live in residence halls during their first and second years and then university-owned apartments and houses during their final years.
Campus Dining
We have a traditional dining hall, a grab-and-go shop called Viking Market & Café, and 1891 Bread Co.—your go-to place for coffee and baked goods.
Residence Life and Campus Safety
Residence Life staff, along with Campus Safety officers, provide many resources to aid in students’ safety.
