Your home away from home

Here are some of the reasons why it’s cool to stay on our campus and make the most of your student experience.

  • It is an opportunity for students to connect with other students, whether as a new or returning student
  • It is an opportunity to establish a home away from home for yourself
  • You can build relationships, learn from other students – whether formally or informally and have an opportunity to collaborate on projects or participate in fun on-campus activities
  • We have residential and well-being advisors called Residence Assistants (RA’s)
