Meet people from Iowa and other countries!
Any enrolled student is eligible for on-campus housing and, by simply filling out an application and contract, can secure a reservation. The housing staff encourages all students, especially freshmen, to complete this process as soon as possible.
Living in the residence halls gives you an opportunity to meet new people from across Iowa, Other states, and even other countries. The residence halls are coed, housing both men and women on alternating wings or floors. And the nice thing is you don’t have to leave the building to see your friends or to get to the dining hall- everything is connected in one facility. Each floor, comprised of approximately 30 students, sponsors at least three activities per semester, and many floors choose to sponsor their own intramural teams, In addition, residents often attend campus activities together, including sporting events, dances, concerts, and other campus entertainment like comedian, hypnotists, musician, and much more. (Most events are FREE!)
Double Rooms
Lofts
We provide every student with a bed; however, many choose to personalize their room and maximize the space by building a loft. If you plan to build a loft in your room, the room dimensions and sample plans shown here should prove helpful to you. All lofts must be free standing (No hanging lofts are allowed). Note: Individuals building lofts take full responsibility for the soundness and strength of the finished product. In no way is NIACC responsible for accidents occurring during the building of a loft or at any time during which it is being used.
Many students choose to have a roommate. Each double occupancy room has either two single standing beds or a set of bunk beds. Student roommates selections are made by housing staff, but you can also request a specific roommate. If you want a specific roommate, you must identify that on your contract.
Single Rooms
Some students have a room to themselves. Single rooms are assigned based on availability. Priority is given first to returning sophomores and then to new applications based on the date their materials are received. Single rooms cost $350 extra per semester.
