Hey everyone, I'm starting to look into colleges and CLU caught my attention. I was wondering if any current or past students could give me some insight into the housing options available there. Are there any options you'd highly recommend? Thanks!
Hello! It's great that you're considering California Lutheran University (CLU). Several housing options are available at CLU, catering to both freshmen and upperclassmen needs. Here's a brief rundown of some of the popular options:
1. Trinity Hall and Grace Hall: These are primarily freshmen residence halls. Both are designed suite-style, with two students per room. The suite shares a bathroom with only one other room, which is quite convenient. Common areas and kitchens are available on each floor.
2. Mogen Hall: This residence is available for all class levels, and it offers a bit more privacy than Trinity and Grace Halls. Each suite has four private bedrooms with a shared living/kitchen area and 1.5 bathrooms. Mogen Hall tends to be a popular choice among students.
3. New Residence Hall: This is another option available for all class levels. Its design is similar to Mogen Hall, with four private bedrooms, shared living/kitchen area, and 1.5 bathrooms per suite.
4. Pederson Hall Apartments and Thompson Apartments: These apartment-style residences are primarily for juniors and seniors. Each apartment houses four to five students with private bedrooms, shared living area, full kitchen, and multiple bathrooms.
5. Mt. Clef Apartments: These apartments are mostly for seniors, with private bedrooms in four-bedroom units. All units have full kitchens, shared living spaces, and multiple bathrooms.
When choosing housing, consider factors like your personal preferences for privacy and how social you want your living environment to be. Freshman residence halls like Trinity and Grace Halls offer good opportunities for bonding with your classmates. For upperclassmen, apartments like Pederson and Thompson are desirable for a more independent setup with added conveniences.
No matter what option you choose, it's essential to check the housing and roommate application deadlines and submit your materials in a timely manner. You can always visit the CLU housing website for more detailed information and updates.
Best of luck with your college journey!
