St. Thomas Residence Hall Association announced in an email this November that it will reserve 150 more beds in on-campus housing for current first-year students returning for fall 2019. St. Thomas plans to move towards a two year on-campus residency requirement as they renovate and restructure campus housing in the next ten years.
For students who choose to live off campus, a new housing option could be coming soon to a neighborhood near St. Thomas.
When Flynn and Morrison halls filled up, students who did not want to live in “freshman dorms” expressed frustration and looked to find housing solutions for next year.
For the first time, St. Thomas Residence Life has opened next year’s on-campus housing applications in November, four months earlier than normal.
