Residential Life
University Housing offers a variety of housing options within more than a dozen residence halls on campus. First-year students are required to live on campus and will find many options in living arrangements and price that entice them to stay on campus beyond their freshman year – from the suite-style facilities of Maple Hill to the international living learning community of Holcombe Hall to the new apartments on Duncan Avenue.
Maple Hill is a multi-use suite-style facility. Students live in double rooms in one- and two-bedroom suites, with cable television and individual Ethernet connections in each room. The residence halls also feature staff apartments, classrooms, conference rooms, quiet study rooms and a large fireplace lounge.
Holcombe Hall opened in 1949, and is named for Miss Jobelle Holcombe, who graduated in 1898 and served as the first dean of women from 1907 to 1913. In 2006, Holcombe Hall began the transition to an international living learning community. The goal is to create a unique and exciting place for international exchange and learning at the University of Arkansas. Students and staff conduct a handful of programs in Holcombe through the year, but the true strength of the community comes from the interactions, relationships and plans the residents themselves build.
The newest and most unique campus residence is Duncan Avenue Apartments. The four-bedroom apartments are just minutes walking distance from most classrooms and laboratories on campus. While this complex offers apartment-style living, each student has a separate contract – so if an apartment-mate leaves, other roommates are not responsible for the departing roommate’s charges. The fully furnished apartments include high speed Internet, cable television and all utilities except telephone, and also features a washer and dryer and full kitchen with appliances. It is the first "Green Globes" construction project on the University of Arkansas campus.
