Description

Welcome to Shenandoah University as a member of our residential community. The mission of Residence Life is to provide the most exciting, efficient, educational, student-centered residential experience that we can provide. We offer residential living communities to enhance the intellectual climate and provide nurturing and inclusive environments that facilitate engaged student learning and citizenry. Aside from the obvious advantage of access and convenience, living on campus is a great way to meet people and make life-long friends that transforms your out of classroom time into a much richer and deeper experience! Residential living provides greater opportunities to interact with professors outside of the classroom, be actively involved in clubs and organizations, attend performances by our conservatory students and support our Hornets at athletic competitions. Studies also show that students who live on campus for their first two years of their undergraduate education have a higher graduation rate! This is why we require all students to live on campus their freshman and sophomore years; all housing contracts are binding for a full academic year. We invite you to become engaged in our campus community and remember that at Shenandoah University, "You Can!" We are excited in having you live in our community and enrich it with your intellect, leadership, civility, dedication and perseverance. - Don Appiarius, Director of Residence Life Mission We encourage students to be successful and responsible citizens by creatingan atmosphere that promotes learning, respectful dialogue, physical comfort and safety.
