Living On-Campus

Where you’ll live in your new world at St. Cloud State University is one of the most important decisions you’ll make.

St. Cloud State University has nine residential communities; each one has its own personality and appeal – from gender-based floors to co-ed floors, traditional residence halls to apartment-type living. Living on campus means you’ll be surrounded by about 3,100 people who are going through – or have gone through – many of the same experiences you’re having. Maybe you’ll live with someone from your hometown in Minnesota – or maybe your neighbor will be from China or one of the other 80 nations our more than 1,000 international students call home.

Residential LifeBy living on campus, you’re within a short walk of your classes so you’ll have easier access to faculty members, the library, academic resources, recreation facilities, sporting events and clubs and organizations. And an extra bonus: students who live on campus do better academically.
