Upper-Division Student Housing

Sophomores are required to live in University housing. Several types of accommodations are offered by the University.

The Francis P. Gaines Residence Hall is a 200-bed facility that provides housing, primarily in attractive apartment-like suites, for upperclass students. The residence hall will accommodate students who request to be grouped together by interest. 

For upperclass and law students seeking on-campus, apartment-style accommodations, the Woods Creek Apartments feature three-, four-, and five-student apartment units, each with a kitchenette, living room, and single occupancy bedrooms. There are 40 such apartments accommodating a total of 142 students who live in a convenient but secluded part of the central campus.

The International House, the John Chavis House (named for W&L's 1st black student), the Outing Club House, and the Casa Hispánica (Spanish House) also provide limited residential accommodations.
