Residence halls at the Main campus, as well as several leased, off-campus housing options, provide an opportunity for students to extend their learning experiences beyond the classroom, library, and laboratory.

University Housing & Residential Life works to create group-living environments in which each student is encouraged to develop as an individual in an atmosphere that promotes emotional, social, and intellectual growth. In addition, University Housing & Residential Life is committed to creating community-living environments that value and promote an appreciation for diversity of cultures, lifestyles, and people.

Please check the Office of University Housing & Residential Life web site listed above for additional information on residential services available. The Office of University Housing & Residential Life web site also provides online resources to assist Temple University students in locating off-campus housing.
