These residences provide first and second year students with an opportunity to live together in community. The College also offers townhouses and apartments - residences usually selected by upperclassmen as they provide more freedom than the larger residence halls. There are 14 townhouse buildings, each housing between 10 and 12 students. Residents of the apartments are not required to purchase the College meal plan, as the apartments have cooking facilities. Merrimack also offers Theme Housing, which provides students with an alternative to traditional residence hall living.
Students can enhance their formal education with interest-specific learning in a community setting.
