Residence Hall Tour Residence Hall Tour Drake has seven residence halls available for undergraduate students. If you are a first year student, you will be assigned to a double room on a first year student floor. These floors bring together students who can relate to each other's experiences as they live and learn as friends. Drake's residence halls offer other living options too, such as co-educational floors.
Men live on one end women on the other.
You may indicate on your housing contract if you prefer not to live on a co-ed floor. We also offer learning communities. Set in the average residence life setting, the learning community offers the opportunity to live on a special floor living with other students who share your interests and priorities. These floors are for students who want to be near students who are taking the same classes, to have the opportunity get to know faculty members better and to set their own community standards and priorities. Information on learning communities is available at summer orientation for new students and at the time of room sign up for returning students.
