Undergraduate Residence Halls

For information see: www.emory.edu/HOUSING/UNDERGRAD/ughouse. Emory owns and operates student residence halls located on campus; there are traditional double-room halls, single rooms and apartment-style housing units available. The halls include private and semi-private furnished rooms for unmarried students, lounges, recreation rooms, study rooms, and laundry facilities. Graduate students are employed as Resident Directors (RDs) and upper division undergraduates work as Resident Advisors (RAs). These RDs and RAs provide general assistance to their hall residents and coordinate various educational, social, and recreational activities.

Housing is extremely limited, though a request will be honored as a space becomes available. For more information, contact the Office of Residence Life at 727-7631.

In addition, international undergraduate can order linens that match the beds in residence halls online before arriving to the U.S., provided that they use their Emory residence hall address for shipping address. Please check www.rhl.org/emu for more information.
