Community

One of the best ways to experience Lawrence Technological University is to live on campus. University Housing provides so much more than a room in which to sleep and study. It fosters an environment designed to support your academic, social, cultural, and personal goals. Studies show that students living on campus perform better academically, feel a stronger connection to their university, and are more satisfied with their college experience. On-campus housing makes access to University facilities convenient and easy.

All accepted students are eligible to live on campus, and freshmen are particularly encouraged to do so as planned activities and first-year student initiatives ease the transition from high school to university.

A Supportive, Knowledgeable Staff

Lawrence Tech’s housing staff will assist you in all aspects of your collegiate experience. They are committed to:

• Providing a safe and healthy environment
• Promoting the ideals of community living by emphasizing personal responsibility and respect for others
• Creating opportunities for student involvement and personal development
• Offering advice and information.

With this staff support, you’ll find it easier to acclimate to college life and develop valuable time and stress management skills.

Each residence hall has a professional, fulltime residence hall coordinator, a community leader on each floor, and a staffed Information Desk. The residence hall coordinator is a full-time University employee responsible for supervising the staff and supporting residents

The Freshman Extra

The First-Year Experience (FYE) residential program integrates the curricular and extracurricular experiences of first-year students in order to enhance their academic and personal development. The FYE program provides firstyear students with opportunities to interact with peers, connect with a mentor, and get involved in campus life. 

Transfer and Graduate Students

Transfer and graduate students with 30 or more credits are housed with other students at their academic level who share similar interests and academic aspirations. The community leader on their floor can help in making connections with peers, planning social events, and providing other resources and referrals pertinent to transfer and graduate student needs. A limited number of single suites are available each year for transfer and graduate students.

Meal Deals

Lawrence Tech's RFoC (Real Food on Campus) is an all-you-can-eat dining area at the heart of campus. Breakfast through dinner, seven days a week, the RFoC offers a variety of selections at different food stations. Students simply swipe their ID cards and a meal is deducted from their Block meal plan. Students can use their Blue Devil Dollars, which are a part of every Block Plan, at the on-campus Einstein’s Bagels or the P.O.D. (Provisions on Demand) for a quick snack or for a meal on the go.
