Housing and Residence Life

Facility
Facility
Accessible only by individual fobs, the brand-new 2nd floor space is totally secure with a private entrance/exit and is just across the walking plaza from the MCBS studios – about 30 seconds. In addition to building security, there is a full-time Housing Manager and Assistant living on site.
The facility contains 6 fully furnished two or three bedroom ‘suites’ that feature a lounge area, microwave and refrigerator. Each individual bedroom houses up to 4 students in the summer and 2 students in the winter. The suites have one bathroom per bedroom, a private vanity in each bedroom, a desk and closet/drawer space.
There is a large common room for socializing and holding group activities complete with couches, television, a quiet study space and access to our fully furnished outdoor deck. The common area also includes a kitchen and tables for meals.
The 2nd floor space contains an industrial size ice machine and laundry facilities.
