Living Arrangements
Each living environment at St. Andrews takes on a personality built by the residents of the building. The students in each building have the opportunity through the activities they plan, their hall council and the structure of the building to make each building very individual. The halls each have a resident director to assist in working with college policy in order to make things happen, resident assistant, who are peer mentors, and hall councils. Living in the halls offers students the opportunity to have a set of parameters and through proven responsibility gain the privilege to restructure their living environment. Residency is required for all full-time students and as a result more than 90 percent of the students live on campus, and nearly everyone spends weekends here to make sure they won't miss anything. An array of social events sponsored by the Student Activities Union, residence halls, and other clubs and organizations fill the calendar. Movies, parties, dances, athletic events, performing artists, comedians, coffeehouse entertainment and novelty/variety shows are all highly anticipated events.

You also should be aware there are a number of student services available to support you at St. Andrews. Health and Wellness provides student health, counseling and career services. St. Andrews also provides student activities to get involved in so check out our clubs and organizations.
