Regents
Welcome to Regents Hall, Home of the Regents Rhinos!
Regents is located on the academic side of campus close to the Curris Center. It is a ten story hall with residents living on 3rd through 10th floors and total capacity is 380 residents for returning students only.
All floors are mix-gendered. The rooms are assigned by gender, but you can live next to someone of different gender.
Regents is a returning student only building.
Regents is a close knit community, for our returning student or transfer student population.
As you consider the options, we want to make you aware of some important changes planned to Regents Hall for Fall 2022.
In Fall 2022, the Regents Hall community will only have returning or transfer students living in the hall. We know how important campus life is for students and we are hoping to create an upper division hall to give students more privacy, all floors becoming mixed gendered by suite, as well as open up more overnight visitation.
Private rooms will be available to any returning student wanting to live in Regents Hall at a discounted rate. (Please stay tuned for Fall 2022 rates upon approval.) The rooms will continue to have the two (2) twin beds for you to make a king bed if you would like and two (2) desks and two (2) chairs. The floors will be Mixed Gender. Mixed Gender Floor means the entire suite rooms (attached by a bathroom) are the same gender and the next suite could be a different gender.
As stated above, we are also modifying the visitation policy in Regents Hall to allow overnight guests throughout the week. Guests will be permitted to stay over any night of the week, up to seven (7) consecutive nights and up to ten (10) nights per month. Your guest will still need to check in at the front desk. Exceptions to the visitation policy are only allowable with prior written consent of the Director of Housing.
Below you will find information about the room set-up, amenities, and how to get involved and become a part of the Regents Rhino Community!
