Student Housing and Dining

Transfer Students

Transfer students can live anywhere on Main Campus but typically choose our Promontory Apartments located on the perimeter of campus. These apartments have dedicated transfer student housing areas featuring full kitchens and in-unit laundry. Students with at least 90 units, 21 years old, or who qualify for family housing, may select to live in East Campus, approximately one mile from Main Campus.
