Residence Halls
Not Your Typical
1st-Year Housing
Get to know your neighbors in our smaller buildings.
We don't call them "dorms," because you won't find high-rise dorms with a thousand nameless students at UW-Green Bay. We don't have communal bathrooms, either! Our unique approach to on-campus living means smaller residential buildings that foster a sense of community and togetherness. Our largest residence hall houses 200 students, and most have less than 60 residents.
Dining
Get your meal plan** squared away along with your housing, so you can focus on the college part of college.

Building Options
Residence halls are one of three types of housing available on our Green Bay campus. Other options are our private and shared bedroom apartments. To find out more, see our housing options.
Largest Residence Hall
We have one larger residence hall style building, Roy Downham Hall, but it's still a small community. It has 97 rooms and can house 194 residents. This residence hall also has an elevator.
Small Residence Halls
UW-Green Bay has ten 30-room residence hall buildings. Our residence hall rooms are double occupancy, so this means that each community houses 60 students.
Have Questions?
College is exciting because you're on your own! But if something comes up, each building has resident mentors and a hall managers on staff that you can go to for answers, guidance and advice.
