The Department of Residential Life is here to help you take full advantage of a variety of educational opportunities in a residential community that is supportive, diverse, and exciting. Northeastern offers a number of different housing options and special-interest programs within its housing program. Students in the residence halls may become members of the Residence Hall Council, a student governing body which represents student opinion and helps to organize programs and activities. Accommodations Most residence halls have lounge and study areas, as well as student mailboxes and laundry rooms. The University supplies a bed, a dresser, a desk, and a chair for each student.
Some residence halls offer suites for two to seven students.
Suites are reserved for residents who participate in theme housing programs. For upperclass students, the University maintains some apartment units that may accommodate up to eight people. Every effort is made to honor roommate and building requests. However, some units are reserved for juniors, seniors, and graduate students. Applications and deposits are accepted up to eleven months prior to the quarter for which housing is requested.
