Living on campus can be one of the best experiences of a college student's life. The focus of our student living program is to complement one's formal classroom education by offering students the "total university experience" for personal growth and development.

Important Information

All incoming first-year students are required to live in Utica University residence halls for their first two years, unless residing at home with their legal parent or guardian who live within a 30 mile radius. All transfer students are required to have lived on a campus for 4 semesters. This means incoming second year transfers are required to reside on campus unless residing at home with their legal parent or guardian. For more information on our Two-Year Housing Requirement and exceptions to the policy, please click here.

Below you can find our current room and board rates for the 2024-2025 academic year, calculated on a per-student, per-semester basis. Please note that these rates are subject to change.

Housing Selection Information

Welcome to Utica University!  You are now about to become a member of our residential community.  It is our hope that your experience within the residence halls is more than just a place to lay your head after classes.  We hope that you will involve yourself as an active member of this community in order to help us maintain a positive, safe, and worthwhile residential experience.

  • Incoming First-Year students can expect to be assigned to North or South Halls. First year students are not assigned into single occupancy rooms, unless a medical accommodation is required. More information about North and South Halls can be found here. 
  • All-Gender Housing: All-Gender Housing is designed for students who may want to live with someone regardless of their gender, gender identity, or gender expression. In these assignments, legal sex is not a determining factor for assignment. If you would like to discuss All-Gender Housing options please reach out via email to SLCE@utica.edu.  

Housing Selection Process for Fall 2025:

  1. The 2025-2026 On-Campus Housing Contract is now available to review and sign here. 
  2. If necessary: Any student requesting any medical accommodation should contact the Office of Learning Services.
