Carleton College is a residential liberal arts college. An important and exciting part of being a Carleton student comes directly from residing with other students in the residence halls and houses.

Residential Life is committed to providing students with a healthy and safe living environment. Residential Life works to foster a living and learning environment that enhances student growth and development through individual and group experiences. We value the contributions all students make in our communities, and we seek to provide accessible housing to meet the needs of everyone.
