Housing
Harrisburg University provides high quality, affordable undergraduate student housing and residence life services through various partners.
While on-campus housing is NOT mandatory, all new, first-time students are encouraged to live on-campus if not commuting from home. Any enrolled undergraduate student at Harrisburg University is eligible to apply to live in University-partnered housing. We encourage students to apply quickly as spaces are limited.
Each apartment suite is fully furnished with a twin XL bed per student, dresser, sofa and lounge furniture, coffee and end tables, and kitchen table and chairs. Apartments are not traditional dorm-style as they include a full kitchen, living room, bedroom(s), bathroom(s), and closets shared by only the residents of the assigned apartment. Basic utilities and campus wireless internet access are included in the rental housing fee. A shared laundry room with card-operated machines is provided for residents’ use. Cable TV hook-ups are available, but must be paid for by the student occupants directly to the service providers.
Harrisburg University Housing & Residence Life strives to provide a safe, inclusive, and socially engaging residential community for students. The Student Life staff is committed to nurturing an on-campus living community that supports students’ educational and personal development.
