Living and Learning
UW Residence Halls provide a living environment allowing for personal and academic growth. Research has consistently shown that students who integrate both academically and socially to campus are the most successful. Residence hall programs offer both of these opportunities. The University of Wyoming is committed to freshman success and views the programs and services in the residence halls to be supportive of freshman success.

It's all right here
Each residence hall is staffed 24-hours a day to provide you with daily mail delivery and information. Our custodial staff takes great pride in keeping the public areas - bathrooms, hallways, lounges, and lobbies - in our residence halls clean. Washers and dryers are located in the lower level of each hall. Residence hall students get free high-speed Internet access through direct connection to the RESidential computer NETwork (ResNet). What does this mean? Speeds over 200 times faster than a modem connection. Plus, you're not tying up your telephone line. Residential computer labs are in convenient locations throughout the halls and are a place to check e-mail, do homework, work on a group project, and "surf the net." The lab computers are connected to the UW student network and offer the latest technology. Free tutoring is available for all students on a drop-in basis. Tutors are available to help with math, biology, chemistry, physics, and writing. Throughout the semester there are seminars to assist with time management, studying for college level sciences and taking essay tests.

Grow Faster with FIG's
Our innovative Freshman Interest Groups (FIG's) program will help you adjust to your new life, both on campus and in the classroom. A FIG is a group of 20 first semester students with similar interest, who take classes together and live on the same residence hall floor. Sign up and you won't walk into that first class alone.
