Welcome to Your UNLV Home
Take advantage of everything UNLV has to offer and live on campus.
Housing Options
UNLV is proud to offer multiple options for living on campus that maximizes your college experience. Live with students of similar interests, be close to campus resources, and learn in a safe and supportive environment.
First-Year and Traditional Residence Hall Living
Live in the heart of campus in our traditional residential experience in UNLV owned and operated residence halls. UNLV offers on-campus housing for traditional first-year students, all students seeking a traditional campus experience, and for students who meet the criteria for the First-Year Housing Requirement. UNLV is committed to filling the residence halls first, and to providing a first-year experience to students.
Upper-Class, Apartment Style Living
Enjoy the perks and convenience of living on the UNLV campus as you reside at U District, an official university-affiliated housing partner. (University-affiliated housing partners operate under separate lease requirements from UNLV.) U District is UNLV's student community tailored for upperclassmen. U District consists of two communities: The Degree and Legacy LV. The Degree offers brand new high-end apartments and finishes; Legacy LV offers affordable and spacious apartments.
