Campus Housing

Welcome home! The Office of Residence Life at St. Edward’s University cultivates intentional living-learning environments that foster development of the heart and mind, preparing students to take on their world.

By engaging in the residential experience at St. Edward’s University, students will develop independent living skills, build community and relationships, prioritize health and wellness, and grow personally and intellectually. Living on campus means that residents are just a few steps away from friends, classes, and the exciting opportunities that Austin has to offer, with the added benefit of enhanced safety and security on campus.

Housing Options

Students have a variety of living communities to choose from, each with their own distinctive personality. Visit each community's page to see the amenities available and review the various room types and rates offered using the links below.

If you need an on-campus housing accommodation such as a service animal, specific location request, or assistive devices, submit a request to Student Disability Services (SDS). SDS staff reviews all requests in consultation with Residence Life.
