Residence provides you with the opportunity to build friendships and experience life on campus.
I have had a good time at this residence; I felt like I have grown as a person. I have also made a lot of friends here. Overall, my experience has been great, so of course I would recommend residence to someone else.
Over the course of my 4 years at this residence I’ve had an exceptional experience with all aspects. Cleaning, maintenance, roommates, etc. were all above and beyond my expectations.
Residence is an absolutely fantastic community to start your university/college life. It is convenient; you get to meet all sorts of people and make new connections. It builds a solid foundation for all future years.
I enjoy and appreciate the safe and comfortable environment created by the efforts of the residence staff.
Overall, I believe the residence experience was extremely worth it and I do think it has made my university experience much better.
I love the experience and the people I have met during my stay here. It is a great place for first years transitioning from living away from home.
I have really enjoyed the residence experience; I felt safe and it was nice having the support of the RAs (Residence Advisors).
It’s a great opportunity to meet people live in an academic community while still having fun with friends. Residence is clean, friendly, welcoming and safe.
Everything is good. Just like my home.
I love Residence because of 24/7 front desk services, maintenance and housekeeping services. It’s also really close to campus.
