Housing
Get the full college experience by living on campus.
SMC’s on-campus housing is not like typical college residence halls. Our apartment-style suites are spacious and modern.
Bedrooms
Student bedrooms are accessible only by private key-card entry.

Security
Security is a top priority for SMC. Keycard entry is required for entry into the parking lot, buildings, suites and bedrooms. Each floor has a residential advisor, and each building has a professional housing manager available 24/7. All visitors must check in at the front desk. Campus is patrolled day and night by an on-site security officer and an extensive network of cameras. Learn more about campus security here.

Lounge
A lounge area with a big-screen TV and a fireplace on each floor provides the perfect place to study with friends or host gaming tournaments.

The Backyard
The three residence halls are connected by The Backyard, a spacious grassy area perfect for cookouts, volleyball, roasting marshmallows around the Fire Pit, or an outdoor movie with your new friends.
