New, first-year students are housed in Rose Street Commons (Dauphin Hall, Lancaster, York, Juniata, Delaware, and Clinton) to provide a strategic programming and support base as these students transition to successful college students.

    Upper class students, this also includes transfer students, reside in Campus View and The Village at Penn College. Programming and activities are geared toward the unique needs of these students, and provide a medium to create lasting friendships.

    Immunization Requirements

    All students who live in College housing are required to have ALL immunizations per the College's Immunization Requirements and submit documentation prior to moving into on-campus housing, unless the College has granted the student a waiver for medical or religious reasons. Students who fail to satisfy the College's Immunization Requirements will not be permitted to reside in on-campus housing and will not be eligible for a refund of housing costs.

    Housing Assignments & Roommates

    Housing assignments for new students typically begin in late June or early July. We wait until after the first few New Student Orientation (NSO) sessions so students have the opportunity to meet others and think about their preferences before being placed.

    If you already know who you’d like to live with, you can confirm your roommate preference directly within the housing contract. If you're having trouble doing that, contact Residence Life to request a Mutual Roommate Request Form. These forms are also available during New Student Orientation (NSO)—you can complete one on-site and drop it off at the Residence Life office.

    For those who don’t have a specific roommate in mind, no problem! We’ll use the answers you provided in your housing contract to match you with someone who shares similar preferences and habits.

    Once housing assignments are complete, students will receive an email , but can always check by logging in to your Student Portal.
