Where to live

One of the best parts of the °µÍø½ûÇø experience is living on campus in one of our 15 residence halls. Each hall has its own personality and traditions, and many offer Living-Learning Communities (LLCs), which bring you together with other students who share your major or interest.

Where to eat

With our great meal plan deals and all-you-can-eat open dining, there’s no shortage of snacks to fuel your study sessions. Our dining halls offer something for every taste, from hand-tossed pizza and a taco bar to southern home-style cooking and even delicious all-vegan fare.

Where to play

You can’t spend all your time studying or in the classroom, so °µÍø½ûÇø provides many ways to stay in shape, unwind and have a little fun -- whether it’s taking a turn on the Pohl Rec Center’s Climbing Wall, cheering on the Mean Green, or playing a pick up game.
