Housing

Living on campus at Lake Superior State University, you’ll have the chance to make long-lasting friendships and to become involved in a wide variety of University activities. At LSSU, we believe in the support services we provide to help students succeed.  Research shows that students who live on campus perform stronger academically. Therefore, LSSU has a two-year residency requirement after the graduation of high school.

All housing on LSSU’s campus is within a five-minute walk of all campus facilities, including the dining hall, library, Student Activity Center and Barnes & Noble at Lake Superior State University. Living on campus at LSSU is a community, one that values a sense of belonging and supporting our students. We hope you will stay on campus throughout your time at LSSU!

All students who live in campus housing must complete the housing application and return it to the Campus Life and Housing Office. The date we receive your application and payment establishes your priority. Every effort will be made to accommodate your request; however, decisions are based on space availability. Private and low-occupancy rooms are extremely limited in certain areas.  Private rooms or apartments may be available on a limited basis at an additional charge.

Your room on campus will be your living space for the next few years and to get the most out of it we encourage students to make it their own. Visit Pinterest for some great decoration ideas but don’t forget all the basics that you will use every day. We encourage students to bring things such as board games, frisbees, volleyball, bikes, things that will promote social interaction and growth.
