Housing Options
All first year students are guaranteed housing. First
year students live on both the East and West sides of
campus – there is not one “first-year area” but rather
six residence halls that house all first year students.
The style of housing is generally connected to their
first year program. Messina students live in doubles.
Most Loyola 101 students live in suites and
apartments.
Doubles
Double rooms are shared by two students and students
share a bathroom with three to ten other students on
their floor of the same gender.
Doubles are available in Hopkins Court, Butler Hall,
Hammerman Hall, and Flannery O’Connor. Some
double rooms hold three to four people.
Apartments
Apartments are shared by four to six students and have
two or three bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living
room, and one to two bathrooms.
Apartments are available in Campion Tower
Suites
Suites are shared by four students and have two
bedrooms, a kitchen, bathroom, and small dining/study
space.
Suites are available in Lange Court
How are roommates matched?
Students are asked to answer a number of
questions about themselves that help us to match
them with the best roommates possible.
Tomorrow during housing registration, it is
important that students answer questions honestly.
What is next?
Students will get their housing assignments from us in
early August via their Loyola email account. In that
email we will include contact information for their
roommate(s).
Everything students will need to know prior to move in
will be located on our website, including: pictures of
rooms, dimensions of furniture, descriptions of
amenities in each building, items to bring and not
bring, etc.
