ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳

You will receive your assignment at the beginning of August. This information will include the dorm and room number, phone number and name(s) of your roommates(s). We encourage you to get in touch with your roommate(s) before arriving on campus. 

ÀÏÍõÂÛ̳'s policies are the only administrative structure that must be abided in each dorm. Every dorm is governed by its own community. A dorm president is in charge of holding dorm meetings where residents vote on various dorm issues. Customs people are in each hall and work with first-year students. Hall Advisors are on each floor as a resource for all students, but none of these positions is responsible for policing dorm life.

Part of the collegiate experience is learning to co-exist with many different kinds of people. Students are encouraged to resolve conflicts and differences among themselves. If a resolution cannot be reached, a room change is always possible.

Room changes are only given in certain situations. These situations include but are not limited to, unresolvable roommate conflict or problems with the structural integrity of a room. Any student interested in a room change must fill out the appropriate paperwork, which is available beginning in early October at the Residential Life Office in Guild. Once the paperwork has been filed, each individual case is reviewed by members of the Residence Council. All concerned parties are interviewed, and a decision is made. There is an opportunity for appeals, as well as an opportunity to re-file a room change request later in the year.

Please refer to our guest policy.

Full-time students residing in Bryn Mawr College residence halls may remain on campus during Fall, Thanksgiving, and Spring breaks. Additional arrangements must be made at additional cost during winter and summer breaks to stay in the dorms. During these times, there are restrictions that apply to residents remaining on campus. For more information, visit Vacation Break Housing.

Due to limited space on campus, the College cannot offer students summer storage. However, students may choose to contract directly with , a local company that can meet a student's summer storage needs for a fee.

The Residential Life and Student Engagement Office is on the second floor of the Campus Center in Campus Center 202. 

Each year, we hire several students to help with administrative duties in the office. Positions usually fill quickly, so contact the Residential Life Office at reslife@brynmawr.edu at the end of each school year to inquire about open positions in the fall.

HAs are selected each year from a field of applicants. To learn more about the HA position, contact the Residential Life office at reslife@brynmawr.edu.
