The Classic College Experience

(Undergraduates only) Traditional halls, with double occupancy and community bathrooms, are the most common living experience on campus.
Research shows that students in traditional halls are more likely than not to have successful academic experiences, meet new people, socialize, and build resilient friendship support networks.

» The Legacy Halls

Starting college is a big step—and where you live makes all the difference. In addition to being a more cost-friendly option, traditional residence halls are perfect for freshmen with their instant communities and support available right where you live. Built between 1949 and 1970, StoutWentzParker and Iba offer a rich legacy that has shaped generations of Cowboys.

» Modified Traditional Halls

The University Commons Complex, which opened in 2015, provides a modified traditional experience where small blocks of six to eight rooms share a common bathroom. Commons North is OSU's only all-women hall.
