The University offers a variety of living styles and options, including traditional corridor-style rooms, suites, and apartments. They also offer special living options such as Chemical-Free and Break Housing. Newing College and Dickinson Community are arranged in traditional corridors with rooms on either side or a bathroom shared by all residents of the corridor. College-in-the-Woods is a combination of suites and corridors. It has double rooms on corridors (with a bathroom that serves all students living in rooms on the corridor) and designed triples and quads. A triple is a room designed for three students and a quad is a room designed for four students. Some designed triples and quads have a private entrance from outside of the building and their own bathrooms. A suite is like an apartment, housing four to seven students and consisting of two or three bedrooms, a lounge, and a bathroom with a stall shower.

A three-bedroom suite, which houses six individuals in three double bedrooms, is also available. Residents should keep their living area free from substances like alcohol; cigarettes, other tobacco products, and other smoking materials; and all illicit drugs.
