Residential FYCs

Why might someone choose a Residential FYC?

• Community is strengthened through both course and housing connections
• Increased engagement on campus
• Easy for forming study groups and working on group projects

Locations of Residential FYCs

Residential FYCs are located in Doty, Turck and Dupre residence halls. Gender inclusive housing is the default housing arrangement in most of Doty, and all of Turck and Dupre. Single gender spaces for first years are in the following spaces:

Female Spaces: Doty 5 & Doty 4
Male Spaces: Doty 3
If we have any overflow, students requesting to live in single gender housing will be placed in Bigelow Hall, our other single gender hall.
For more information, visit the Residential Life website or the bathroom inventory. Depending on your need or desire for single-gender or gender-inclusive housing, note where each FYC is placed when ranking your preferences. If your housing preferences don’t align with your FYC placement, you may not be living with the other students in your FYC.

Accommodation Requests

It will be important to factor in ALL your housing needs (disability or religious accommodations, single gender housing needs, preferences, etc.) when thinking about your FYC selection. If you’re looking for single rooms within a residential FYC, there are limited singles available. For disability accommodation requests, please follow the instructions from the Center for Disability Resources; note that the deadline to request these accommodations is June 20. For religious accommodation requests, please contact the Center for Spiritual and Religious Life no later than June 13.

Roommates

If you are in a residential FYC, you will be paired with students either in your FYC class, or with other residents in FYCs located in the same building. We do not currently accept roommate requests.
