Eagle Hall

A page within Residence Life

Proudly standing as a LEED Gold Certified building, Eagle Hall is different from our other on-campus housing options. It is divided into two residence halls: Eagle Gray and Eagle Maroon. Each hall has about 350 students and is designed as a semi-suite style building. You share a room with two roommates and an adjoining bathroom with another room. Eagle Hall has a limited number of first year students plus a combination of upper class, transfer and international students on floors mixed by gender.

Eagle Hall is located right next to Whitney Dining Center and the Recreational Eagle Center (REC). It is on the northwest side of campus on La Crosse Street.

Eagle Hall rooms are extended housing. The rooms accommodate three students due to the demand for on-campus living. In the event that campus housing occupancy is low, Eagle Hall rooms will be converted to double rooms. Students who live in an Eagle room with one other student will have their normal room rate increased by $200 per semester. Check here for specific room rates.

The Eagle Hall Transfer Student Community offers transfer students a unique living experience. Designed and proposed by current transfer students, and with transfer students in mind, we are excited to offer this living opportunity for our transfer students. With all transfer students, the community is built to help transfer students adjust to a new university and be able to connect based on their shared experiences. The Resident Assistant (RA) of the community is also a transfer student, who is able to guide other transfer students through adjusting to a new campus and community. The events of this community are geared toward building connections between residents and to campus offices with resources for transfer students. Come live in a great community with students who share your experiences!
