Residence Hall Descriptions

We recommend you take a "virtual tour" (http://housingmealplans.syr.edu/virt_room_tour/virt_room_tour.shtml) to get a sense of the general size of our rooms. This will also allow you to see the set-up of typical student rooms and apartments. All North Campus rooms are furnished with beds. Mattresses are standard twin size (36" x 75"), except for Brewster, Boland, Kimmel, Marion, Skyhalls, (36" x 80") and Washington Arms (38" x 75"). Jersey-knit sheets are recommended as they fit both regular and extra-long beds. Due to the room configuration in Flint Hall, each room has one standard twin (36" x 75"), and one extra-long twin (36" x 80"). All rooms are furnished with a dresser, a mirror, a desk, a chair, closet space, drapes, and a mattress pad. All suites are furnished with a sofa. Washington Arms suites are also furnished with a microfridge (a combination refrigerator, freezer, and microwave oven).
