Hollins University is a residential campus that prides itself on our campus community. By living on campus, students develop academically, socially, physically, and spiritually within safe and comfortable living areas. Residence halls also provide the best and fastest way to bond with other students.

A significant part of learning at a residential institution is the experience that each student gains through living with other students. Residential living provides opportunities for residents to expand ideas, pursue interests, resolve differences, and develop leadership skills.

There are nine residence halls on campus. Seniors comprise the majority of the population living in the Apartments and Main. Sophomores and juniors typically live in East, French House, Sandusky, and West. First-year and a mix of upper-class students live in Tinker and Randolph. There are also special interest housing opportunities available to students after their first semester living on campus (Carvin Global Village, Casa Hispanica, French House, HOP Hall, NEFA, Otaku, and Sandusky).

There is probably no other time in your life when you will live, work, and study in such close proximity to so many other people. These dynamics challenge you to learn the meaning of community, to balance individual and group needs, and to develop self-discipline. You will leave the residence halls with more skills in interpersonal relationships than you had when you entered.
