All Gender Housing Selection Guide
Housing Arrangements
AGH is located in Founders Hall for returning students and Kreischer Compton for new and returning students and will be open to any interested student who is eligible to live on campus through an application process similar to those offered for other special interest housing options, such as Learning Communities. Founders Hall allows for single and double bedroom options. The single rooms share a bathroom with one other person and double rooms are located in six-person suites. The placement in Kreischer Compton allows for double occupancy rooms with a shared restroom on the floor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please note: The Office of Residence Life discourages individuals in romantic relationships from living together, as that is not the purpose of AGH.

A student will only have the ability to select or be assigned to AGH after filling out the application and applying, even under consolidation processes.
