their disability-related needs. Housing accommodation requests must be accompanied
by appropriate documentation and presented to SDS. Those who need the services of
a personal attendant should indicate so on the application. Accessible features and
facilities vary in each hall. Students should request additional information from
SDS or Residence Life and visit the halls to evaluate the facilities that best fit
their needs before listing their housing preferences on the application.
Traditional residence halls are closed between semesters and during Spring break.
Students who need to remain on campus during breaks should request housing in one
of the extended contract facilities, Richardson Towers or Carpenter Complex.
Family Housing is available on the South Campus for students who will have a spouse
or dependent children residing with them. The South Campus is located at Park Avenue
and Getwell, approximately two miles from the main campus. Vehicular transportation
is required between the South Campus and main campus.
