  • Approximately 85% of the undergraduates and 90% of the freshmen reside on campus in the residence halls and townhouses. Living options at the University are designed to foster a gradual increase of independent lifestyle and individual responsibility. First-year students have the opportunity to establish relationships with large numbers of classmates in a more traditional setting. Sophomores and Juniors experiment with small-group living while eating in common areas with all resident students. Most seniors live independently in townhouse units with full responsibility for their cooking, cleaning, etc. All living areas include telephone, cable, and computer access. All students who live on campus, except for those in the townhouses, are required to participate in a meal plan. Bryant offers a number of plans to provide students with flexible options for on-campus dining at several locations.
