Pride Housing

An LGBTQ+ Living Learning Community

Interested in Pride Housing?

Pride Housing provides a home for students who are particularly seeking an LGBTQ+ affirming and gender-inclusive living experience. Pride Housing consists entirely of all-gender spaces.

Our Goals for Pride Housing

  •  To build a caring and connected community among residents in Pride Housing. 
  •  To provide students with opportunities for learning about development of their own multidimensional personal and social identities. 
  •  To connect residents with resources across campus that promote academic success and personal wellness. 

How to Apply

During the Housing application process please select Pride Housing under Interested Community. Any student committed to the purpose and goals of Pride Housing, regardless of identity, is welcome to submit an interest in Pride Housing.

What to Expect

Residents in Pride Housing will be encouraged to participate in periodic community programming and dialogues intended to build community, promote learning, and support wellness. Staff will also organize opportunities for residents to attend both LGBTQ+ specific and general university programs and events as a group.
