At the University of Prince Edward Island, a campus residence is much more than a convenient place to eat and sleep. Here you'll find a balance between privacy and group activities and, more importantly, a blend of people with different backgrounds, interests, academic pursuits and aspirations. Your learning experience can be enriched if you allow yourself to become involved as part of our community. Description of Residence Residence accommodation at UPEI is under the supervision of the Residence, Food and Conference Services Manager and the Vice President - Finance and Facilities. Each residence is under the direction of the Assistant Manager - Residence Life, Residence Life Advisers and the elected House Councils.
Priority is given to UPEI students.
However, individual applications will be accepted, and an effort will be made to find a compatible roommate. Any resident student wishing to stay in residence during the Christmas vacation may be accommodated on a per diem basis. Those wishing to remain in residence at this special time must make their request to the Assistant Manager - Residence Life. Again, residences close the day following each individual student's final exam. A limited number of spaces are available for students from May to August.
