Student Housing
Woodbury University provides student housing options that fit a variety of budgets and living preferences, including two on-campus residence halls – North Hall and South Hall – on the Burbank campus.
Fall 2023: Important Housing Dates
The housing application for new and returning students will be available on Monday, April 10 at 8:00am PST.
The priority deadline for both apps is Monday, April 24 at 5:00pm PST.
Add housing@woodbury.edu to your safe list or address book so important emails do not get sent to the spam folder. Please scroll down for more information about on-campus housing and how to apply.
North Hall
North Hall is a three-story, air-conditioned student residence hall separated into 11 community sections. Each section houses up to 15 students, who share a community kitchen and bathroom. North Hall also has a common central lounge, drink and snack machines, and laundry facilities.
South Hall
South Hall is a traditional single-story, coed student residence built around a courtyard in the center of the campus. Rooms are not air-conditioned but are equipped with ceiling fans. Separate community bathrooms are conveniently located in the male and female hallways. South Hall is equipped with laundry facilities, drink and snack machines, and a common kitchen. South Hall is also home to the Fitness Center.
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
- Pool
