About 1,940 C.W. Post students live in ten residence halls on campus. Nine of these are co-ed, with males and females divided by floor or wing. Each hall accommodates from 40 to 380 students. Four residence halls – Brookville, Kings, Queens, Post and Riggs – are traditional-style, offering two, three or four- person rooms that open onto a common hallway. Residents in each hallway share a large, common bathroom.

The Good News
About Residence Hall Life

Research shows that students who live on campus:

  • Are more likely to graduate
  • Enjoy college more
  • Build more friendships with other students
  • Have better relationships with the faculty
  • Play a greater role in extracurricular activities
    and athletics
  • Are more likely to become student leaders
  • Earn higher grade point averages

The South Residence Complex features an all-suite design, with up to eight students sharing a common living area, double bedrooms and a semi-private bath. This layout is popular with upper-class students who want to share living accommodations with a group of friends.

Two other residence halls – Suffolk and Nassau – offer more specialized options. Suffolk Hall is a traditional-style hall designed for 24-hour intensified study for students who prefer a quiet, academic-centered environment. Nassau Hall offers the additional benefit of long-stay accommodations over vacations and in between semesters – for overseas and other far-from-home students, for those who work on campus, or for students who register for classes during the Winter Semester.

Lodge A is a small, traditional-style, Graduate Student residence hall. It houses 40 to 60 students in rooms that can accommodate two to four students.

Lodge B is a small, traditional residence hall. It houses about 50 graduate students.

Every residence hall offers lounges for relaxation or study, as well as snack areas with vending machines and convection ovens, and fully equipped laundry rooms.
