There are four residence halls at Loyola. Biever Hall, Buddig Hall, and the new residence hall are on the main campus. Cabra Hall, for co-ed upperclassmen, is on the Broadway campus, just a few blocks up St. Charles Avenue. All freshmen from outside metropolitan New Orleans are required to live on campus, as well as purchase a meal plan.
Housing is guaranteed for freshman status students from outside the New Orleans metropolitan area.
The residence halls are equipped with computer labs, music practice rooms, laundry rooms, TV lounges, kitchens, study lounges, and more. Students can check out cleaning equipment, such as vacuums and brooms. There are a large number of apartments and houses in the uptown area avaliable for rent to students with a varied range of prices, most within walking or biking distance. There is housing available for over 1,000 students to live on campus, approximately one-third of our undergraduates. Loyola University does have commuter services available for those students who live in New Orleans but not in the residence halls.
