Living on Campus

Housing

Staying in our university residence halls gives students the full Ohio University experience! Pre-college students who participate in the housing and meal plan will be housed in residence halls on East Green, located next to the Chaddock + Morrow College of Fine Arts buildings and just a short walk from Uptown Athens.

Students are housed in traditional dormitory double rooms with twin extra-long beds, and those joining the program with friends or family members may request a roommate in advance. Communal bathrooms are located on each floor.

Our Resident Advisors, all current Ohio University students, stay in the building and provide round-the-clock support as well as coordinating extracurricular events and outings. Students will have the opportunity to explore our beautiful campus as well as Uptown Athens and the natural beauty of the Ridges.

Adult students participating in the Summer Dance Institute will be housed in suite-style single rooms.

Meal Plan

Our meal plan is designed to introduce students to the university experience, with meals held on campus at Nelson Dining Hall. Menus change daily and offer a variety of options for all dietary needs. Any questions regarding menu planning for individual students can be directed to our campus dietition, Angie Bohyer, at bohyer@ohio.edu.

Daily Schedule

Please note: Commuter students are welcome to join for meals and extracurricular activities and may use credit or debit cards to pay as they go (university dining halls do not accept cash). Entry to residence halls is only permitted to students registered for housing.
