Where will I eat and sleep?

With an awesome selection of housing options, there’s a place for everyone on Alma College’s campus—literally. In addition to traditional dorms and apartments, Alma offers numerous small and theme housing options.


Wherever you spend your four years at Alma, though, living on a residential campus has a lot of benefits: you will meet more people, attend more events and have more fun. The best part is that your new friends will always be minutes away.

And so will your classes! Whether you have a habit of hitting the snooze button, or you’re an early-riser who likes to snag a cup of coffee before class, it’s difficult to be late for class at Alma. Convenient, right?

We invite you to explore Alma’s residence life by checking out our housing options. No matter where you live, by choosing Alma you are choosing to be part of a close-knit campus community that can’t wait for you to join us!

 

Wright Hall, Alma’s “green” residence hall, is a modern, 60-bed apartment-style hall that features a number of environmentally friendly features, including geothermal heating and cooling, recycled-content ceiling tiles and carpeting, energy-efficient windows, rooftop solar heating panels, energy-efficient showers and washing machines, and a computerized energy monitoring system.
