Ivy studying at Simmons University

“Living in a dorm is pretty convenient because you’re very close to classes and Boston is pretty expensive, so just having a place where you can live and not have to pay a lot of money is pretty convenient.”

Living on campus 

Simmons University’s Residence Campus is home to 9 residence halls, a dining facility and the University’s sports and health centers. 

The style of student housing and the types of amenities available vary slightly in each residence hall. Most Simmons dorm rooms are “doubles” (meant to be shared by 2 students), though there are some triple (3 students) and quad (4 students) rooms as well. 

You can also take advantage of the Living-Learning Communities, which bring together students with common interests, making it easy to get to know people.
