Living in a residence hall helps you adjust to college life. If you are a first year student, you'll live in one of our halls with other first-year students who share your excitement and worries about college.
Many upperclass students choose to live in our residence halls as well.
You'll get to know your roommates and hall neighbors through coffeehouses, dances, canoeing trips, and other events. It's a corridor where peoples' doors are open for conversation and where you get to know each other in many ways. It's playing intramural sports together in the afternoon and lingering over dinner in the dining hall. It's taking a class together in you hall's living room where you might discuss leadership issues or develop an understanding of other peoples' views on race or religion. It's a big part of your college experience, and at Miami you have many ways to have fun and learn.
