A photo of the Williston residence hall in spring Amherst has 34 residence halls. Seven of these buildings are for first-year students. Sophomores, juniors and seniors choose where they live, and housing for them is available in various configurations. In addition, some sophomores, juniors and seniors choose to live in theme houses, which allow students who share an interest to be together on the same floor or residence hall.

We are currently creating a comprehensive overview of each of our residence halls; check back soon for more information on each of the locations.
