Reducing expenses for students

We’ve taken steps to keep our on-campus housing rates for all students. This will keep the cost of attending UA for students living on campus for the academic year by more than $2,500, on average.

Rates are per semester.

About our residence halls

For many, an important part of college life is living on campus in a residence hall. It provides once-in-a-lifetime opportunities for friendships and activities. At UA, only a portion of the student body lives on campus, giving our resident students a taste of a small-college atmosphere.

We want your room to be a place where you feel at home, so each one is planned and furnished with that in mind. We have coed residence halls; double rooms and suites and high rises. There are even on-campus apartments. Although we can't guarantee students get their first choice in room locations, we certainly try our best to accommodate their wishes.
