Residence Halls
Holy Family provides four distinct residential-living experiences: a residence hall, two independent apartment-style living, and suite style living options. First-year students who participate in the residence-life program are guaranteed housing for two years. Housing beyond two years is limited and subject to availability. 

All first-year resident students will be placed in St. Joseph Hall. After their first year, these students may choose to remain in St. Joseph Hall, or they can choose to live in one of the University's Duplex Apartments, Garden Residence, or Stevenson Lane subject to availability. 


St. Joseph HallSt. Joseph Hall
Located at the center of campus just steps from the Campus Center, Holy Family Hall, and the Library, St. Joseph Hall offers double-occupancy rooms and communal bathrooms, plus three handicapped-accessible rooms with adjoining private baths. The four-story residence hall houses both male and female students separated by floor and contains a 24-hour computer lab, lounges, vending room, and a recreation room designed by students. A security desk monitors building access around the clock, and a residence-life professional staff  lives in the building and supervises the hall's student resident advisors. 

Each floor contains a kitchenette with range and sink and laundry machines in this building are free of charge to the residents. Each room provides individually controlled air conditioning and includes cable-television service, high-speed Internet access, and campus-wide voice mail.

Duplex residents may opt into the University's meal plan. Cable television service and high-speed Internet access are available, although residents must subscribe to and pay for these services. Each apartment also contains a clothes washer and dryer which are free of charge to duplex residents.
