Residence Halls
One of the benefits of living on campus is that you get a multidimensional college experience. At the Office of Residence Life, we work hard to make sure that experience is great.
Attending a small school like Wingate University means participating in a fun, vibrant community. You learn as much from your fellow students as from your professors. That’s why we strongly encourage students to live on campus. You belong here, so take advantage of all we have to offer.
First-Year Students
All of our buildings for first-year students include twin XL beds, desks, desk chairs and wardrobes. All of our spaces are air conditioned and have Wi-Fi access and digital cable internet capabilities. We offer double, triple and quadruple rooms. All five first-year residence halls are coed to varying degrees, by floor, wing or alternating room. You can indicate your housing preference on the housing questionnaire.
Returning Students
You will receive emails in late February/early March about housing for the next year. You will be asked to sign a contract that will guarantee housing and once that is complete you can proceed to find roommates in groups of 2,3,4,6 or 8 depending on the area you wish to live.
