Housing Options for On-Campus Living
You'll start developing strong community connections from the day residence halls open in August. On our Salem campus, you’ll find dozens of residential options including first-year communities and apartments for juniors and seniors.
Dining Options on Campus
Enjoy made-from-scratch meals in Goudy, our main dining hall. Blitz Market and Rick’s Café offer grab-and-go options, such as coffee, teas, sodas, sandwiches, salads, and snacks.

You'll use your Compass Card frequently. It’s not only your campus ID, but it’s also used for building access, meals, bookstore purchases, laundry services, photocopies, and more.
