Living on campus is a vital experience for every university student, as it provides an atmosphere where they will be challenged to grow as they build meaningful relationships. The resident life is committed to the development of the whole person. Therefore, the student life department strives to involve students in the SCU community that is nurtured by the resident life staff. Our staff consists of a full-time resident director and six resident assistants and six resident chaplains.

The housing application must be completed and received by the Resident Director before July 1st for the fall semester and Dec. 1st for the spring semester. The room fee of $100.00 must be submitted with the application in order to process your request.

For additional housing information please contact the Resident Director

• a. Do the resident halls have a washer and dryer?

  Yes, the resident halls have laundry facilities. The washers and dryers are coin operated.

• Can I bring my computer?
  
  

  Yes, we encourage students to bring their computers for educational purposes. If students do not have a computer they can take advantage of the computer lab located in the library.

• Can I contact my roommate to see what they will be bringing so we do not duplicate large items?

  Yes, if students provide contact information it will be provided to individuals who will be living together. This is a great time to get introduced and to find out what items they plan to bring. Usually items such as microwaves and refrigerators are shared.

• Will I get the roommate and room I choose on my application?
  
  

  Not necessarily, there are several factors that can determine room and roommate selection. For example, the time that the housing application was received or the room each person selected could be different for financial reasons. We will do our best to accommodate the needs and requests of students, but there are several variables that can affect a student's request.
