UPPERCLASS STUDENTS

Upperclass students choose the room and building they want to live in each year. Room selection takes place each spring by a lottery system. Students are assigned a lottery number based on the number of credits they have completed and select their room in the order of their lottery numbers.

LIVING OPTIONS
A variety of living options are available to upper-class students. Four of the residence halls consist of two-room suites which share a bathroom. There are theme floors such as the Creative Arts floor and the Substance-Free floor. There are also floors for students who are members of a fraternity or sorority as well as community living situations similar to freshman housing. The College offers several college-owned and maintained apartments located within a block of campus to qualified junior and senior level students. 

Lycoming College believes residence hall living is an important part of the college experience and the learning that occurs in the halls is an essential ingredient in the growth, development and education of our students.

As a residential college, Lycoming College requires all full-time students to live in college housing and participate in the college board plan each semester of the academic year that they are enrolled. Married students, students residing with their parents within a 40 mile radius, students living with their dependents, and students 23 years or older may request to be exempted from this policy. Such requests should be submitted in writing to the Dean of Student Affairs at least three weeks prior to the beginning of the semester that students are requesting permission to live off campus. 

Lycoming College is unable to provide housing for students who have dependent children living with them.

FIRST YEAR STUDENTS

All first year students live in one of our designated freshman residence areas in Asbury, Skeath and Wesley. The floors are coed by wing with an upperclass Resident Advisor for each wing. Each hall is equipped with coin-operated laundry facilities, a lounge with cable TV, and snack and soda machines. All residence halls are secured by and ID card reader access system which allows all resident students access to halls during designated weekday and weekend times. All of the residence halls are wired with phone, cable television and Internet service. Students may bring lofts to create more floor space or rent them. Microwaves, refrigerators, and TVs are allowed as well.

First year students are assigned a room by the Residence Life staff but may choose their roommate if they wish. There are special communities for those interested in an intensive study or substance-free environment. All areas of the halls are nonsmoking. Special programming is offered through the First Year Residents Succeeding Together (FYRST) program to help students adjust to college living.
