Community and Belonging
You will make new friends, find your community, and build lasting connections. Living on campus means being part of a welcoming community where you’ll always have someone to share a meal, study, or explore campus with.

Live Close to the Action
When you live on campus at SIUE, you’re never far from what matters most. From your classes to campus events, friends, and resources, you’ll always be at the center of it all.

Close to Class
Your classrooms, library, and study spaces are just a short walk away. More time for learning and succeeding.

Events and Involvement
Athletics, campus resources, movie nights, student organizations, and late-night programs are happening right outside your door. Living on campus makes it easy to get involved and stay connected.

Academic Success
Students who live on campus consistently perform better academically. You’ll have access to quiet study lounges, computer labs, tutoring and mentoring programs, and faculty-led Living Learning Communities (LLCs) designed to support your academic journey.

Your well-being is a priority. Our residence halls and apartments feature secure keycard access, front desk staff, live-in professional staff, and student Resident Assistants (RAs). University Police and Housing staff work together to maintain a safe and supportive environment 24/7.

Convenience and Amenities
Dining options, fitness centers, laundry facilities, Wi-Fi, lounges, and study spaces are all just steps away. Everything you need to succeed is built right into your living environment.
