Hamline's residence halls
Drew Hall
With its modern dorm rooms renovated in 2021, Drew Hall is home to a community of roughly 200 undergraduate students in single and double rooms.
Manor Hall
Manor Hall is a Tudor-style residence hall which houses a little more than 100 students in single, double, triple, and quad rooms. Manor Hall has a picturesque stone tower sheltering the main entrance. Residents are encouraged to become involved with Manor Hall Council, which provides a great opportunity for students to get involved and enhance their leadership skills.
Sorin Hall
Sorin Hall houses just over 100 students on same-gender floors: Two women-identified floors and one men-identified floor. The dorm also features ample storage space, large windows, and direct access to a recreation and computer room located on the first floor. Sorin Hall is also barrier-free.
The Heights: Osborn, Peterson, and Schilling
Osborn, Peterson, and Schilling Residence Halls—collectively known as the Hamline Heights—are three identical buildings, each housing nearly 100 students, and are co-ed communities with carpeted rooms.
Special-interest communities
Hamline's special-interest communities offer an opportunity for students to live with like-minded individuals and participate in special programming surrounding a theme. Residents living in special-interest communities create and adhere to standards and guidelines for the community and work in collaboration with their resident assistants (RAs) and staff members to create diverse programming. We offer three special-interest communities: Global Piper Community, Honors Community, and LGBT and Social Justice Community.
Global Piper Community
The Global Piper Community, located in Osborn Hall, is a special-interest community offered to all domestic students who want to study abroad and/or major in Global Studies. Students who live in the Global Piper Community will be paired with an international student as a roommate. The community has an RA dedicated to help those students live and learn with each other and to achieve academic success. Global Mentors will provide educational and social programming for these residents as well.
Honors Community
The Honors Community, located in Osborn Hall, is a special-interest community offered to students registered in the Early University Honors Program. Students who live in the Honors Community will have an area with a dedicated student lounge. Staff will be available on the floor to help students achieve academic success and RAs will provide educational and social programming for all residents. The only requirement to live in the Honors Community is to be registered with the Early University Honors Program.
This campus is very friendly for queer people no matter where you live. And we have a floor on Drew just for queer students. It's been a welcoming space for queer students.
