Upperclassman Residents
Your Home Away From Home
Upperclassmen refer to students in their sophomore, junior, and senior year.
Each year we welcome around 550 students to the on-campus community.
Research across the United States over the last 40 years has provided compelling evidence that students who live in university-provided housing perform better academically, and enjoy a higher degree of satisfaction with their college experience, than students who live off-campus or commute.
A student who lives in The W’s residence halls is more likely to:
- Take full advantage of campus resources.
- Be more involved in campus activities and educational programs.
- Complete more credit hours per semester.
- Achieve greater academic success.
- Complete their studies and attain their degree.
- Be more satisfied with the overall university experience.
