Housing Information and Overview
The University of Maine provides on-campus housing in 19 residence halls. Options include traditional undergraduate residence halls for first year and upper-class residents, suite style living for upper-class residents, graduate housing, and several living/learning lifestyle options.
First-year Residence Requirement: Living on campus maximizes students’ opportunities for social, cultural and extracurricular involvement and is positively linked to students’ persistence toward attaining a degree. Because the University of Maine (UMaine) believes that residence hall living is an educational opportunity that all new students should experience, living on campus is required for all newly admitted first-year students who are: aged 20 or younger; do not live within easy commuting distance (35 miles); and do not have exceptional circumstances that prevent this option.
The First Year Residence Experience (FYRE) program is for first year students that are assigned to the following halls
• Androscoggin |
• Cumberland |
• Gannett |
• Knox |
• Oxford |
• Somerset |
• Balentine (Honors) |
• Penobscot (Honors) |
