Residence Halls and Areas
Clustered into shared residential experiences around campus, student residences create a shared undergraduate experience, foster diverse and inclusive communities, and enrich academic life.
Living on Campus
More than just physical living spaces, Residential Services at Northwestern works to promote a sense of community and support student success. Students who enroll will receive official information directly from Residential Services regarding next steps but, in the meantime, we wanted to provide a small preview for admitted students.
Visit the Incoming Undergraduates page on the Residential Services website for more information about the on-campus residential experience at Northwestern.
On-Campus Housing Requirement
All members of the Class of 2029 participate in a shared residential experience under Northwestern’s two-year residency requirement. After submitting your tuition deposit, you may access the online housing contract until June 1. In early August, you will receive your housing assignment via your Northwestern email account. For more information, visit the Residency Requirement webpage.
