Lehigh University:

Student Life > Housing > First-Year Housing

As a first-year student, you'll be required to live on campus. You'll live in one of several residence halls that surround the academic core of the campus -- a short walk from classes, the libraries and the gym. If you plan on commuting to Lehigh or living off campus with a family member, you will need to petition the Office of Residential Services for exemption from the residency requirement.

Most residence hall rooms are doubles, with a limited number of singles and triples. All residence hall rooms are equipped with telephone, cable and direct Internet access. Lounges, kitchens and study rooms give you ample room to work and relax.

All residence hall facilities are smoke-free.
