Department of Residence Life
The Department of Residence Life at Creighton University provides a strong, class-year housing system designed to provide an exceptional opportunity for students to build community with one another. Each phase of living on campus at Creighton involves asking students intentional questions about themselves, their relationship to others, and ultimately as leaders to the world.
Freshman Living
"Who Am I?" At Creighton, Freshmen experience a community experience unlike any other! All Freshmen, (first-year) students live together in three freshman residence halls: Kiewit, Deglman, and Gallagher. Whether in the Freshman residence halls or in the Ratio Studiorum Program, Freshman students are encouraged to learn about themselves and how they can be successful at Creighton by focusing in on this first-year question.
Sophomore Living
"Who am I in relation to Others?" The Sophmore class lives together in Swanson, McGloin, Kenefick and Heider residence halls. Sophomores are beginning to take on leadership roles while also having to decide on an academic major. It is in the sophomore year that learning more about community--specifically one's responsibility to the community--comes into focus. The second year of the Ratio Studiorum Program in conjunction with the Sophomore residence halls attempts to help sophomores engage in discussions about themselves as individuals in a greater community.
Apartment Living
"Who am I becoming for others, for the world?" Juniors and Seniors reside in Davis Square and Opus Hall while Graduate/Professional students reside in Heider Hall. In our apartments, supportive and educational programming focuses on helping students to figure out how they will use their gifts and talents for life beyond Creighton.
