Residence Halls
We encourage students to live on campus. Beyond being convenient, living on campus can help students succeed both academically and emotionally in the fast-paced college environment. If you want to live on campus, please complete the housing application as soon as possible. Learn more about the housing-application process for incoming new students or current/returning students.
The College offers a variety of living options, from traditional rooms and apartments to beautiful historic homes. As you’ll read below, some of the halls and the historic houses are for returning students and some halls are for first-year students. Some halls house both. We encourage transfer students to look at the housing category (first-year or returning student) that best suits their situation. Take a look at all the options to find the best fit for you.
All CofC halls and houses have:
- air conditioning
- free washers and dryers
- free Wi-Fi
- either a microfridge, kitchenette or full kitchen
Using the building links below, you can read about a residence hall or historic house, see sample floor plans, and learn about amenities.
You can also check out a 360° video tour of all our residence halls or view them individually on each hall page. You will be able to see floor plans for specific rooms in the MyHousing/Dining portal during room selection.
Finally, get a sense of where everything is with our map of dining locations and residence halls.
