Residence Halls

Making The Most of Residence Life
We strive to help you make your residence days and nights as rewarding as your classroom experiences. As a first-year student, you'll live in one of our six newly renovated, fully networked residence halls. All the rooms are double occupancy and fully furnished with carpets and drapes. Shared floor lounges have tvs, microwaves and kitchenettes. A "substance-free" environment is also available.

After your freshman year, your options broaden. Furnished rooms in upperclass residence halls offer suite style rooming and individual bathrooms. On-campus choices for juniors and seniors also include apartment-style living, with kitchen facilities that allow an exemption to meal plan requirements.

Clarkson has also developed a popular "theme housing" option in which students who share common interests, such as outdoors enthusiasts, entrepreneurial business majors, or those wishing a substance free residence, choose to live together.

In addition to these choices, about 15 percent of upperclass students join fraternities or sororities and opt for living in an off-campus chapter house.
