Freshman
Our freshmen live in the Residence Halls unless they qualify for family housing. Located around the heart of campus, the Residence Halls are semi-suite style, which means suite-mates have their own bathroom. Each building has a kitchen and is only steps away from several campus dining options.
Housing options
Residence Halls are primarily designated for first-time freshmen, but some upper-division students also call them home. All students living in the Residence Halls must be full-time, matriculated students, and are required to have a meal plan.
Residence Halls
Located around the heart of campus, our eight Residence Halls provide easy access to food, entertainment, and campus services. Each building has a mailroom, laundry room, fully equipped kitchen, and lounge area. Depending on the Residence Hall, occupants may have double or triple occupancy rooms with bathrooms shared amongst suite-mates.
Living Learning Communities
Living Learning Communities at CSUMB are communities where students of similar interests and/or academic studies live together and participate in intentional learning about their chosen program or common interest as a collective.
