Living on campus

Enter through our Gates and you feel it: the connection, the community, the spirit of relentless curiosity. Because nearly all our students live on campus, our spaces are designed to bring people together. Throughout your time here, you’ll develop friendships during early-morning yoga, late-night milk and cookies (a �Ӱ��̳ tradition), and everywhere in between.
