OFFICE OF HOUSING AND RESIDENCE LIFE

The Office of Housing and Residence Life is concerned with the operation and management of University owned residential properties both on and off-campus. These include traditional residence halls, on and off campus apartment units, and off-campus houses.

The office of Campus Services is the Housing/Residence Life management agent for University-owned off-campus housing. There is limited availability of off-campus housing opportunities for students. The University offers apartment-style living and limited houses for rent to Gonzaga students. Applications for off-campus housing are available at the Office of Housing/Residence Life. For more info call extension 6852.

In addition to traditional leasing business conducted for the University, Housing and Residence Life strives to provide a thematic approach to the administration of most of the housing facilities under its control. Peer residence life staff members provide a variety of social, educational, and recreational opportunities and programs throughout the facilities and serve as in-house administrators of the facilities. A comprehensive administrative approach is undertaken in order to fulfill the mission of the University with regard to out-of-classroom learning in all realms of human development. The Housing section of this handbook is devoted to issues of housing assignments, roommate selection, facility maintenance and renovations, and description of rules unique to the responsibilities students have when living on campus in University-owned and operated residential property.

The Office of Housing and Residence Life is located in the lower level of the O’Leary Hall at the corner of Sharp and Dakota, and is open from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm Monday through Friday. The extension is 4103.
