Housing at Florida State UniversityResidence Life at Florida State University fosters lifelong learning for every resident through five tenets: the promotion of responsible citizenship, scholarship, appreciation of differences, personal wellness, and involvement.
Purposeful ProgrammingIn 2012, 38% of on-campus residents completed the Association of College and University Housing Officers International/Educational Benchmarking Incorporated (ACUHO-I) Resident Assessment. When compared to 42 Carnegie classification peers, FSU ranked 6th for resident satisfaction with the sense of community in halls and 3rd in satisfaction with hall programming.
The impact of college is largely determined by the student’s efforts and engagement in academic and co-curricular opportunities (Pascarella & Terenzini, 2005). Students who live in an in on-campus residence hall are more likely (p<.05) to get involved in campus activities throughout their time at FSU.

Academic ImpactFSU’s on-campus housing positively impacts students’ academic experiences at the institution as well as their likelihood of persisting to graduation. Data demonstrate that students who live on campus graduate with a higher (p<.05) grade point average.
Graduating Senior GPAs
*Note: GPAs of Fall 2012 and Spring 2013 graduates are from official University records.
First year students living on-campus benefit from Residence Life’s programming and established partnerships with university support services. Compared to living off-campus, students in residence halls and Living-Learning Communities have higher retention rates.
