Residence Halls

“Living in the halls allows me to make friends a lot easier and a lot faster. Some of my closest friends are also my neighbors.”
–Joseph McKinney ‘05
Coursework isn’t the only thing that will challenge you at Rhodes—residential life extends your education to 24/7. Living with your peers offers daily opportunities for discussion, involvement and leadership outside the classroom. Because we think this is an important part of your overall college experience, we require that our students live on campus for their first two years (four years for international students).
Our 13 residence halls and three on-campus apartment buildings are relatively small in scale to keep your experience personal. While the majority of rooms are singles or doubles, there are some three- and four-person rooms available. Social rooms are located in each residence hall for use by the residents, and some halls have kitchens.
All our residence halls and apartments have quiet hours that can be extended by majority vote of the community. Our theme halls offer three additional lifestyle options: restricted visitation, extended quiet hours and substance-free living. And some academic focus courses require that students live together in the same residence hall.
