New Student Housing

Students hanging out in their dorm room laughing and talking

As a first year student, you will live together with your brothers in Cushing Hall, the Whitehouse Quadrangle, or Carpenter Residence Halls X or Y. You also have the unique opportunity to participate in  Living and Learning Communities designed to bring together students, academic advisors, faculty, and peer mentors with shared interests. Transfer students are usually housed together in one of the Carpenter dorms.
