Options for upperclassmen & transfer students

These residence halls offer an excellent alternative to off-campus living. Upperclassmen and transfer students eligible to live in Sierra or Canada Hall include:

  • Returning residents who have lived in the residence halls for at least one year
  • Transfer students who have graduated from high school at least one full year prior to living on campus
  • Transfer students who are 20 years of age or older

As Sierra Hall houses upperclassmen and transfer students, there is limited space available for freshmen. Great Basin Hall and Juniper Hall offer limited spaces for upperclassmen and transfer students as well.
