Your Home Away From Home

We are excited that you are considering our residence halls for your new home away from home!

Living on campus puts you right in the middle of Trinity’s activities, events and resources! Living on-campus offers students the best possible environment to maximize their collegiate experience and to grow personally, socially, and academically. In addition to the proximity to your classes, and classmates; living on campus is also an affordable and cost-effective choice!

Trinity has 4 residence halls for students enrolled full time in the College of Arts and Sciences at Trinity.  All on campus residents must be in good academic, financial and disciplinary standing to live in on campus housing. Residents must meet all Health Center requirements including up to date immunizations.   All residents are required to enroll in a meal plan as part of their Room and Board package.  On Campus Housing is communal living, with shared restroom, shower and laundry facilities.  On Campus housing is only open for occupancy for students during the academic semesters, and thus is not year-round housing.  The Halls close from Mid-December through Mid-January and Mid-May through Mid-August.  Rates are available at: https://discover.trinitydc.edu/campus-housing/residence-hall-rates/.

If you are a incoming student or a current commuter student and are interested in living on campus, please complete a housing application to begin the process of living on campus.
