Living on Campus

Living on campus is an exciting and challenging part of the college experience. At Duquesne, about 3,400 students live on campus in dormitories called Living Learning Centers. (Find out why they’re so much more than just dorms!)

The Office of Residence Life provides a highly trained staff of live-in Resident Directors, Graduate Assistants and Resident Assistants who support these students on a daily basis (24 hours a day, in fact). Among their responsibilities are:

  • Assisting students with personal and academic concerns
  • Implementing policies
  • Facilitating programs
  • Making referrals
  • Sharing information about campus services and events

Duquesne's Residency Policy requires that freshmen and sophomores live on campus or with a parent or guardian. Freshmen receive their room assignments in early July. For upper class students, room selection is held each spring by lottery.

Current students:

  • Housing assignments have been sent to all students via the Duquesne email account
  • Rent a Polarwave.
  • Sign up with DU Alert

Living with Others

In learning how to live with others conflicts may arise. However, these conflicts can usually be resolved through direct communication and honesty. For guidelines or more information, see the Residence Life Handbook.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. The Office of Residence Life is open Monday – Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
