TOUR OUR HOUSING OPTIONSLiving On Campus
Welcome home, Phins! Immerse yourself in the student experience, be a part of a community of students to do and explore, and understand what it means to be a Jacksonville University Dolphin. Our first-year student housing options are located on the South end of campus- Williams Hall and Botts Hall.
Students who have accepted their spot in the Honors & University Scholars program will live in the Honors Residential Commons. This living-learning community is located in North Hall and is led by a Faculty Principal (live-in faculty member) with support from a live-in residential life staff member and honors student mentors.
Looking for a roommate? Join our student community on ZeeMee and meet some of the students that will be joining you in the fall!
