Residence halls offer the opportunity to meet new friends, get involved, and find other people with common interests. Residence halls are more than just a place to sleep. All residents have access to computer labs, and most halls have in-room Internet connections for personal computers. And when you live on campus, you are close to classes and great places to eat, while the new Joe Frank Sanderson Recreation Center and the intramural sports RecPlex are just a short walk or shuttle ride away.
All halls have coin-operated laundry rooms, vending machines, and ice machines.
The trained staff members have been specially chosen for their desire and commitment to help students. But 94 percent of our freshmen do choose to live on campus. Housing at Mississippi State is considered an option and a privilege. No one is required to live on campus, but we strongly encourage it. We believe our residence halls have much, much more to offer than an apartment complex.
