UNI Housing Options

Residence halls are available for all UNI students. All of them are open during Thanksgiving (Nov.) and spring (March) breaks. Five halls - Bartlett, Bender, Dancer, Lawther, Shull, and Noehren - are also open between fall and spring semesters (Dec.). There is no added charge to those who stay during any of these break periods. Bartlett is the only hall open for 12 months and provides air conditioning. Some halls are carpeted and have sinks in rooms. All residence halls have Internet connections in every room and are close to computer labs, which are opened 24 hours/day for the convenience of students. There are a lot of opportunities for getting involved and leadership development.

 

Each of our residence halls has between 8 and 14 communities, which we call "houses." About 50 students live in each house, which can be an entire floor of a hall or portion of a floor. All have common bathrooms and hallways. Most also have lounges. The seven co-ed residence halls are Bartlett, Bender, Campbell, Dancer, Noehren, Rider and Shull. All-female halls include Hagemann and Lawther. The co-ed halls have all-male and all-female houses separately. Community living options in residence halls include Substance-Free, Quiet Lifestyle, Springboard, Upper-class, and Sophomore/Transfer houses.

It is required for all students living in Residence Halls to have a meal plan.

The ROTH Complex is a ten-minute walk from campus and provides students the benefits of living with current friends and making new friends while being able to enjoy increased independence, privacy and responsibility. The two, four, and six person apartments and eight bedroom suites were designed to meet the needs of students who have completed at least 30 credit hours and are in good academic and behavioral standing at the University.

ROTH Apartments

There are three styles of ROTH apartments from which to choose. Up to two people may live in a one-bedroom apartment, up to four in a two-bedroom apartment and up to six in a three-bedroom apartment. Apartments are designed for residents of the same sex. Each apartment includes one kitchen, one bathroom, a dining/living room and bedrooms, which are all furnished.

Each ROTH suite is designed for as many as 16 people. Two wings of up to eight occupants are connected by a kitchen and central living/dining area furnished with a sink, two microwaves, two stoves, one refrigerator, tables, chairs, couches, and a 19-inch color TV. Each wing includes four bedrooms and two bathrooms. There are telephone access and Internet access connections in each room. Bedrooms are for single or double occupancy. Each wing houses either all male or all female residents.

Note that meal plans are not required for students living in the ROTH Complex.
