WELCOME HOME

First-year students are guaranteed housing on campus. The on-campus housing application requires a $200 housing deposit.

Choose from two on-campus housing options: Traditional Housing (owned and operated by West Chester University) and Affiliated Housing (owned and operated by University Student Housing (USH) a subsidiary of the West Chester University Foundation).

Both options are centrally located on north campus, include laundry facilities with free laundry, social and study lounges, and an active residence life program.
