Guaranteed Residence Hall assignment. You are guaranteed placement into the Residence Hall of your choice.
Assigned parking available, steps from your room.
Better roommates. In Double & Triple Suites, you can bring a friend or use free professional roommate matching. No random roommates!
All buildings are fully air conditioned.
Choose your building style: co-ed or female-only.
No bossy, nosy RAs (but there’s a professional management team which can get anything you need accomplished—fast!)
More privacy. Bigger rooms and guaranteed placement into a Single Suite means you won’t have to hassle with roommates, unless you want one.
No worrying about availability. Luxury Residence Halls only sign housing agreements (leases) for rooms that are available, so you won’t have to wait until July to hear if you have Fall 2013 housing.

What UF Students Are Saying

" I got the 'college dorm experience'
[at Windsor Hall] without having to worry about all the negatives of that freshmen experience in traditional dorms, like having to carry shampoo down the hall everyday and wear flip flops in the
shower. "
