Living and Life on Campus
Enjoy the convenience of all-inclusive living, while being steps away from academic buildings, student services, and campus dining locations.
Prior to 20-21 about 65% of students live on campus throughout their four years at Purchase College, so our community is constantly infused with new faces, ideas and experiences. With options like student-directed learning communities, special interest housing, or becoming an RA, you’re sure to feel at home at Purchase College.
We’re Here to Help
