Experience Life on Campus!
Almost half of Ellsworth’s students choose to live on campus, and for good reason! Walking to class is quick and easy, and there's no shortage of fun social and recreational activities throughout the year. Best of all, our residence halls are where lifelong friendships begin.
There are two residence halls and two apartment-style buildings on campus. Here's the breakdown:
- Thompson Hall is co-ed and houses 194 students.
- Lloyd Hall is co-ed and houses 126 students.
- The College Apartments are co-ed and house 76 students.
- The College Suites house 39 students in co-ed suites and three single units.
