University Housing offers two different types of living experiences for our students, First Year Experience and The Next Experience.

The Next Experience (TNE) is designed to assist
sophomore and upper-class students with their transitions, develop
mature relationships and enhance their critical thinking and problem
solving skills.

First Year Experience (FYE) is designed to get our newest residents connected to the University, ease their transition into the college experience, and provide opportunities for social and academic development.
University Housing provides opportunities for students to live in special communities designed to enhance their living experience.
Alcohol Free floors provide a living experience that minimizes the possible negative effects of alcohol. All residents of the community agree not to consume, possess or be under the influence of alcohol while on the floor.
To support this community staff will organize Smart+Healthy events. In addition, residents found in violation of this policy will be moved to another floor.
Alcohol Free floors can be found in the following buildings: Curran-3rd, Kranzusch-3rd, Tustison-4th, Oetting-2nd & 4th, and South-2nd A Cube & 3rd C Cube.
Quiet Study floors provide a community where all residents desire to have an overall quieter atmosphere.
Residents and guests are expected to observe Quiet Hours beginning at 8:00pm on weeknights, rather than 10:00pm. In addition, throughout the year staff will host study nights and provide information on academic success.
Quiet Study floors can be found in the following buildings: Tustison-4th, Oetting-4th, and Milnes-4th.
Wellness floors provide a focus on physical and nutritional wellness and throughout the year staff will organize wellness events and intramural teams.
Wellness floors can be found in the following buildings: Curran-2nd, Kranzusch-2nd, Oetting-4th, Hansen-4th, Keith-4th, and South-2nd & 3rd C Cubes & 4th A Cube.Mixed Gender floors have both male and female students living on the floor. Roommates are the same gender. Separate restrooms are provided for each gender.
Mixed Gender floors can be found in the following buildings: McCalmont (2nd Floor), Fleming-Hovlid (All Floors) and Wigen (All Floors).
Living Learning Communities (LLCs) are designed to connect the classroom with your residence hall living experiences. Students in these communities will take classes together.
Several other students living on the floor may or may not be associated with the living learning community. Yet, all residents are expected to be respectful and tolerant. All floor residents are welcome to attend any of the learning events and activities that are provided within the building.
Art & Design Is for art majors who want to develop skills and be inspired by fellow artists.
