Living on Campus
A View with a Room
Here’s your chance to step across a virtual threshold into Wake Forest’s residence life and housing – so that one day you might step across the actual threshold, into a world of possibility.
Moving In
Moving from the known to the unknown is not necessarily easy, but it is transformative. We look forward to the day when, like these students, you become self-sufficient – but always with others there for encouragement and support.
What We Call Home
In general, residence halls are coeducational by floor, suite, and/or wing. All rooms are equipped with beds, closets, desks, cable television connections, Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections. We include, as part of standard university furniture, a micro-fridge combination microwave-refrigerator/freezer unit. The use of laundry facilities located in every residence hall is also free to residential students.
There are seven residence halls that first-year students are assigned to live in:
- Angelou Residence Hall |
Take the Tour - Babcock Residence Hall | Take the Tour
- Bostwick Residence Hall | Take the Tour
- Collins Residence Hall | Take the Tour
- Johnson Residence Hall | Take the Tour
- Luter Residence Hall
- South Residence Hall | Take the Tour
