Effective Fall 2025, all first-year students will be required to live on-campus for the first two years. Providing sufficient campus housing reduces the anxiety associated with finding housing when moving to a rural, small-town area, while providing an on-ramp to student success that helps students to remain engaged with their campus community. First- and second-year student residents are proven to academically outperform their peers who live off campus. Research shows that the average GPA is 11% higher for residential students and 13% higher for students living in learning communities.
There are several housing options for international students. For first-year students, residence halls are available on campus. For upper-division transfer students and graduate students, you can apply to live on-campus too, or you can use the Housing Off Campus Resources to find living accomodation, such as apartments, in close proximity to campus. To learn more about residence halls, living-learning communities and more, please visit Humboldt's Housing and Dining Services website.
