University of Arkansas Pine Bluff's residential campus encourages a sense of community, where your experiences with fellow students will enrich your academic experience.
Living on campus makes it easy to meet other students, become involved in campus organizations and activities, and helps ease your transition to college life. Because the experience offers so many opportunities, freshmen are required to live in one of the University's campus residence halls.
Through residence hall living, the University of Arkansas Pine Bluff strives to provide an atmosphere where students can learn and effectively pursue their academic and personal goals. In addition, the Residential Life staff attempts to create a community where ideas are freely discussed, topics of concern are explored, individuals develop new skills, and a sense of community is fostered among all residents. The major emphasis of university housing at UAPB is education. Living on campus gives students the opportunity to reach their potential as well rounded individuals through living in a community of people with a variety of needs, interests, and philosophies.
