The Village

Returning and Greek Affiliated Students | $$$ | Suite-Style | A/C

The Village is a townhouse-style on-campus housing option for returning students which is also home to 22 Greek chapters. With three different townhouse layouts, The Village allows returning students the convenience of on-campus living in a more intimate design. Sitting between Conklin Hall and Centennial Hall and across the street from the Library and Fine Arts Center, The Village is the perfect way to have an off-campus housing experience on campus.

Building Highlights

Community

The Village is unlike any other on-campus housing at BGSU. The townhouses were uniquely designed to bridge the gap between a traditional residence hall and off campus townhome. Due to their one-of-a-kind layout, the information provided may differ per unit. View The Village townhouse map to see where each individually numbered house is located.

Future Student Housing

Where can I find Meal Plan options?

Campus Dining oversees meal plans. All First-year Students must enroll in a Custom Dining Plan. The plans include a combination of Meal Swipes and Falcon Dollars, giving you the flexibility to use at all on-campus locations. You can choose which Custom Dining Plan that best fits your needs.

Do I have to live on campus?

Living on campus is an important part of your overall success as a BGSU student. It has been proven that students who live on campus have a higher GPA – and persistence towards graduation – faster than their peers who live off campus. Because of this, Bowling Green State University’s Board of Trustees has set a Residency Requirement that states a student must live on campus their first two years. The Residency Requirement is enforced unless one or more of the exemption criteria are met -or- the student has an approved housing appeal.

What do you mean by Co-ed?

Every Residence Hall at BGSU is Co-ed, meaning both males and females live in each building. The way the males and females are separated is based on what type of rooms are offered in the building. Buildings can be co-ed by wing or floor or they can be co-ed throughout the building.
