We have a tight-knit campus community for a reason. Because approximately 75 percent of Transylvania students live on campus, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to find study partners, hang out, and make lifelong friends.

We also have a list of suggested items to bring with you to campus.
Whether you live in a traditional residence hall, an apartment, or one of our suite-style residences, living on campus can be a highlight of your college experience. Thanks to our urban campus, your residence halls are minutes away from classrooms and the library — not to mention great restaurants, coffee shops, and night spots.

Transylvania’s housing options are below. After your first year, you can choose a residence hall based on your preference for double, single, or suite-style living, your Greek affiliation, or your preferred activity level. Need a place that’s focused on studying? We’ve got that. Like to grill out with friends? We have a place for that, too.
All students are required to live on campus unless certain conditions are met. See the campus housing requirements for details.

Transylvania University admits students regardless of age, race, color, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status, national origin, or any other classification protected by federal or state law or local ordinance.
