We want you to make the most of your on-campus living experience! Recent research of college students across the nation shows that students who live on campus are more satisfied with their college experience, earn higher grade point averages, and are more likely to graduate than their commuting peers. Students find that with this involvement they achieve more professional growth and are stronger candidates when pursuing their career goals. To that end, Florida Tech instituted an educationally based policy requiring all new full-time freshmen to reside in university housing and participate in one of the meal plans for their first two years in college. Our hope sit that Florida Tech will become your “home away from home.” Please review our Student Guide (embed this link) http://www.fit.edu/orientation/documents/SA-068-108.pdf to learn more about the residency requirement, housing options, roommate requests, and your housing assignment. Campus Services shares responsibility with the Office of Residence Life for the management of student housing services.
Campus
Services handles residential assignment and meal plan
contracts including billing, initial room and apartment assignments,
and overall financial and business operations.
The Office
of Residence Life provides the support and leadership
for group living in the residential communities by communicating,
interpreting and administering polices and community standards
that are conducive to maintaining a positive living and learning
environment. In addition, Residence Life oversees the Freshman
Residency requirement.
Both Campus Services' and the Office of Residence Life's primary
mission is to provide safe and secure living/learning environments
which will help residents become academically successful students.
We offer a wide variety of opportunities for students to experience
personal growth and development through educational, social
and cultural programs, which are designed to supplement the
classroom learning experience.
Florida Tech offers several housing options for students including double and single occupancy rooms that have central restrooms and showers, double and single residence halls with a suite style living arrangement that share private restrooms, along with a limited number of center rooms equipped with their own bathrooms. We also offer apartment style living options which includes one, two, and three bedroom apartment choices.
Florida Tech is very proud of its student housing because
it's more than just a simple room or apartment. A variety
of services and activities are provided that makes it more
like a community. The campus continues to renovate and upgrade
facilities to meet the ever-changing needs of our student
body. We invite you to look around our site, view pictures
of our rooms and our community.
