Residence Life
Residence Life at Alma College doesn’t just mean a place to sleep. It’s about making connections within the campus community.
Because we believe that students learn from each other as well as from faculty and staff, Alma is a four-year residential college. All students are expected to live in college-owned or approved housing.
First-year students reside in Bruske, Newberry, Gelston and Mitchell halls, where they live alongside sophomores, juniors and seniors who have decided to remain on North Campus.
But living choices for sophomores, juniors and seniors are hardly limited. Aside from standard residence halls and apartment-style living spaces, upper-class students can also choose to live in Greek or Themed housing, including the only student house in the country specifically dedicated to Model United Nations.
You don’t, however, need to live in Greek or Themed housing to meet students who share your interests. The living spaces on North and South Campus also have distinct personalities.
With only a few doors between you and friendships that will last a lifetime, we hope that Residence Life is a memorable and meaningful part of your Alma experience.
