Brookdale Residence Halls

The residence hall facilities at Hunter College are one of the many unique features that set Hunter apart from the other six Honors College campuses. Located on the Brookdale Campus at 25th street and 1st Avenue, this community is one that you, as an Honors College student, have the opportunity to enjoy. Prior to each Hunter Honors College student's freshman year, they are given the choice between an all-expenses-paid dorm room on campus, guaranteed for four years, or a $1000 stipend each year to spend at his or her leisure. Many students select the dorm option as a way to interact with their fellow students, immerse themselves in an academic environment, and become part of a close-knit community that will endure for their entire college career. The self-sufficiency, independence, and responsibility that one learns while living in the dorms are skills that will benefit the student for years to come.

Advantages of living at the dorm include:

• single rooms for each student ensure privacy and quiet
• lounge areas on each floor where students can come together in a safe and social environment
• a fully equipped kitchen on each floor that students can use to prepare meals
• bathroom and shower facilities on each floor
• coin and card operated laundry facilities
• easy access to many events that take place on the Brookdale campus
• library access on the second floor of Brookdale's West building
• mailroom facilities
• close proximity to every day conveniences such as fast food, pharmacies, and grocery stores
• twenty minute walk to Union Square and the East Village
• use of Brookdale's game room, pool, and workout room

The opportunity to live on campus while studying in the Macaulay Honors College is one not afforded most Honors College students. As a Hunter student, you have this unique privilege and should seriously consider this option before making your final decision.
