Living in residence halls at Mars Hill is a unique opportunity that is an essential part of the college learning experience. It can provide students with an opportunity to experience new challenges, meet new people, and explore new ideas and ways of relating to others. Many students find by learning about themselves and others, they learn as much in the residence halls as in the classroom. Mars Hill believes in this mission to the extent that we require all single first and second year students who are not commuting from their parents’ home to live in one of the campus residence halls.

The best part about living in the residence halls is the wonderful people you will meet. Being part of a close community will allow you to make many new friends and have a strong sense of belonging. There will be someone who is interested in the same activities that you enjoy as well as someone who can teach you something you have always wanted to learn. There will be someone who is willing to listen when you want to talk and someone who will want to share their life with you. Lifelong friendships will be formed.
