Why should you live on campus?
Create your home away from home while you complete your degree. Research shows that students who live on campus have higher GPAs and are more likely to graduate. On-campus housing means that students are just steps away from everything that they need, including:
- Classes and studios
- Woody’s Café
- University library
- Computer labs
- Staff and faculty offices
- Academic support services
- Associated Students of Woodbury University events and programming
- Basketball courts
- Fitness center
