On-Campus Accommodation
You can meet with your classmates while living on campus in ways that can lead to lifelong connections and memories. From standard double occupancy halls to suites, flats, and townhouses, as you get closer to graduation and the life of a young professional, WNE offers alternatives that change as you advance through your studies. As long as there is space available, graduate, law, pharmacy, or doctoral students may continue to live on campus in Gateway Village Apartments.
1. First-Year students
The University's classic first-year students' residential halls, like "The Quad" (Berkshire, Franklin, and Hampden Halls), or Windham Hall, will be your first on-campus housing experience. Depending on their learning interest community (LIC) or other housing needs and interests, some freshmen may also reside at Commonwealth Hall. Additionally, we provide first-year students with a limited quantity of premium singles on a first-come, first-served basis. The residence halls provided by the university are as follows:
The "Quad" of residence halls comprises Berkshire Hall, Hampden Hall, and Franklin Hall. The quad halls have double occupancy rooms, a shared bathroom on each floor, and a building-wide shared laundry room. Each has a lounge with a TV, a kitchenette, and entertainment options. Tile floors and moveable furnishings are features of university housing. These halls are usually reserved for first-year students. The structures have air conditioning.
For those first-year students who choose to live in three-person groups, Windham Hall also offers a limited number of triple rooms. There is a lounge with a television in the middle of the hallway. A washing facility, a study lounge, and a recreational space are also available in the common areas. Rooms have carpeting and movable furnishings. The structure has air conditioning.
2. Sophomore Year
Sophomores have the option to live in Commonwealth Hall, Evergreen Village, the LaRiviere Center, Gateway Village, or Southwood Hall.
A variety of sophomores, juniors, seniors, and transfer students are housed at Commonwealth Hall. First-year students may choose to reside in a Commonwealth learning interest community. Each corridor has a kitchenette, laundry, and semi-private, individual-use restrooms. Each floor's "core" community centre contains a multipurpose room with a recreation area.
For juniors, sophomores, and seniors who choose to reside in suite-style accommodation, LaRiviere Center is an option. A multipurpose lounge, conference room, academic classrooms, and a computer lab make up the building's central portion. Students are housed in four suites—four double rooms—on each coed floor wing, three of which can hold six people, and one may hold eight. There are two private bathrooms in each suite. Each suite contains a "living area" with couches, a table and chairs, built-in cabinets, a full-size refrigerator, and counter space. The inhabitants are in charge of maintaining and caring for the suite. A dedicated study room, extra seating, recreational equipment, and laundry facilities are all part of the floor wing community living space, which all floor wing residents use.
