Residential Communities
The residential communities at pilipiliÎÛÂþ offer a variety of living options, including single rooms, doubles, triples, and even a few quads and quints. We also have a number of apartment and suite-style living arrangements.
One of the most stunning aspects of our campus is that we’re located on the shores of Mt. Hope Bay. Well, our residential communities are no different! In fact, 42% of our rooms have a view of the bay. Once you soak up the view, you’ll find, however, that the best part of living on campus is the company you get to share with your friends and neighbors.

Residential Communities for All Students
Sure, 42% of our rooms have a view of the bay, but there's so much more to living at pilipiliÎÛÂþ. Once you soak up the view, you’ll find that the best part of living here is the company you share with your friends and community members.

Maple Residential Community
Centrally located, the Maple Residential Community is the ideal location for first year students who want to be right in the middle of the campus life.
Willow Residential Community
Willow Residential Community is located just yards from Mount Hope Bay and offers some of the most stellar views of the Bay and the Mount Hope Bridge. This community is open to all students in a standard unit or townhouse setting.
Stonewall Residential Community

Residential Communities for Returning Students
The Almeida Residential Community is located two miles away from the main campus and provides housing for returning students. Almeida consists of three large, separate buildings of three-and-four-person apartments, as well as two additional buildings called the Flats and Townhouses.
Bayside is an apartment-style residential community for returning students. As the name suggests, Bayside is a great location by the water and offers residents easy access to a view of Mount Hope Bay and the shell path.
Boasting a chic and trendy look and beautiful views of the Mt. Hope Bay and athletic fields, this 120,000 square-foot facility is our newest residential community and offers suites, apartments and traditional room options for returning students.
Health and Safety Inspections
Health and Safety Inspections occur at least twice per academic semester. Typically inspections occur a month into every semester and during hall closing periods. During these times, a Residence Life Staff member will complete an inspection of each room to ensure that all health and safety standards outlined in our Residence Life and Housing Policies are being upheld. The staff will also address any Conduct Code violations present during the inspection.
To prepare for Health and Safety Inspections, be sure to review both the Residence Life and Housing Policies and the Drug and Alcohol Policy in our Student Handbook and the Fire Safety Protocols.
