Greetings from the Office of Residential Life and Housing at Rhode Island College! We are a small but active and integral part of the college with many programs and activities that our residents enjoy.

The mission of our office is to create a residential environment that complements the academic mission of the college. Through the programs and services offered, our office works to maintain an environment conducive to personal and educational growth. Housing at Rhode Island College is intended to be a cooperative living arrangement within a community.

Living in a Residence Hall can be a once in a lifetime experience. The environment is different from any that you have experienced in the past. With your fellow residents, you will be exposed to a variety of new people, ideas, concepts and relationships. How much you benefit from this experience depends on how much you are willing to participate and contribute.

The Office of Residential Life and Housing is located in the New Residence Hall. Our office hours are Monday-Friday, 8:30am to 4:30pm. We can be reached at (401) 456-8240.
