Residence Life

At Columbia College Chicago, our residence life housing isn't just a place for students to hang their hats. It's a place for them to roll up their sleeves and get to work. It's a place for them to meet other artists, other thinkers, other performers and to collaborate in ways that had never occurred to them before.

You won't find any dorms on this campus. You will, however, find some of the most innovative student housing in the country. You'll find residence facilities that feel like extensions of the classroom, that function as networking facilities. You'll find living space that's only a few steps down the hall from music practice rooms and art studios. You'll find living, breathing, creative communities that will nurture your work, enliven your work, expand and inspire your work.

Come see what Columbia College Residence Life can offer you.
