Housing and Dining
Living on campus is more than having a place to eat and sleep. It’s about getting the most from your college experience and building a foundation for success. Along the way, you’ll make lifelong friends, eat great food, easily connect to campus resources and events, and create memories.

Your place to recharge
WMU doesn’t believe one size fits all when it comes to campus living. Housing options include residence halls, Living Learning Communities and apartments, so you can pick what best meets your needs and interests.
-
Meet people, make connections and have all Western has to offer literally outside your door.

Start your year knowing you already have a connection with your neighbors through similar majors or interests.

Combine the advantages of living on campus with the flexibility of a more independent lifestyle.
