The Department of Residence Life at Mount Aloysius College is tasked with providing a safe, community-centered living environment on campus. The Department also enriches campus life through the creation of co-curricular events that broaden and deepen students’ academic experiences.


The Residence Life staff includes professional staff and Resident Assistants (RAs) who work with residents to foster a strong sense of community in each residence hall. Freshmen, sophomore, and junior students are required to live on-campus unless they reside with their parents or guardians within the commuting distance (a 45-minute radius of campus). The residence halls are designed and programmed for traditional-aged students.


The College operates five residence halls on campus: Ihmsen Hall, St. Gertrude Hall, St. Joseph Hall, Misciagna Hall and McAuley Hall. Most rooms are double and/or triple occupancy; however, single rooms are sometimes available for an additional fee. Single rooms are most commonly used for housing those with medical or other approved accommodations, which are processed Services and Residence Life.  All of the residence halls have lounge areas with study rooms. The entire campus is served by a wireless network.
