Our Community
Make Humboldt Your Home
Living on campus is one of the best ways to dive into the Humboldt experience. You’ll be part of a community that’s supportive, vibrant, and full of opportunities to connect, all just steps from your classes, dining, and campus events.
Our housing options include apartments, suites, and traditional residence halls, each designed for comfort and convenience. Rooms come furnished, and you’ll find amenities and facilities to make everyday life easy. If you’d like to live with people who share your passions, explore our Living-Learning Communities, where academics and community come together.
No matter which space you choose, some things always come standard: respect, support, and a sense of belonging. Our staff and student leaders host fun activities, lend a listening ear when you need it, and can connect you with clubs, campus resources, and leadership opportunities.
