Admissions
Moving to a Residential Campus
Friends and Fun
Like
a city within itself, you will enjoy the convenience of having
endless social opportunities for interaction with peers and faculty.
With everyone nearby, you will have the chance to develop more
lifelong friendships. You will be more likely to get involved
in extracurricular activities just a few steps away than students
who live off-campus or commute from home.
Academic Support
Unlike other schools, where it's often hard to track down
your professors or advisors, at Denison you will find the academic
support when you need it. With easy access to timely assistance,
you will progress well through your education. Students who live
on-campus graduate at significantly higher rates than others not
having the convenience and support of a residential experience.
Building Your Nest
Living away from home is an adventure that requires a certain amount of preparation. First, you will need to take into consideration your lifestyle preference. We have a number of comfortable, affordable living options including rooms that are single, double, triple, quad, suite, and apartments within our residence halls and houses. After you determine where you're going to live, you will need to come prepared for all sorts of weather and events.
If
you will be sharing your room, you'll want to get in touch
with your roommate ahead of time to decide how to decorate and
to determine who's bringing what in terms of TV, stereo, DVD,
rugs, etc. Although the rooms are adequate in size, remember
that
there is not a lot of storage space for unnecessary items. Additional
information regarding housing rules and regulations may be found
in the Residence Life Handbook.
Once you're settled in, you'll find that Denison's inviting, dynamic atmosphere is a wonderful place to call home. We look forward to seeing you soon!
