Home at Last — UofM housing has become a popular demand for students over the past decade! These aren't your parents' dorms. You'll discover a contemporary and cool vibe. Living on campus is a feeling that's unmatched — full of energy, friendships, independence, spirit and fun. Studies show that students who choose to stay in on-campus housing graduate in four years and have higher GPAs.

Dining — You will find great eats scattered throughout campus. The main hubs for dining are centrally located in the middle of campus and include an all-you-can-eat cafeteria with take-out options, coffee shops, markets, sit-down restaurants and popular fast-food chains. Lots of students sign up for meal plans, and you can also add flex bucks to your account to use between meals at popular spots around campus.
