Living on campus sets the stage for student learning and the MCLA student housing program provides a living environment that is conducive to academic pursuits, personal growth and the development of friendships. As we believe the living experience is an integral part of the educational process, MCLA students, (except local commuters) are required to live on campus and participate in a College meal plan. Transfer Information First year students entering the College live on campus and participate in the College meal plan for three years. If you transfer in with prior college experience, you will receive a one, two or three-year residency requirement commensurate with the number of credits completed. The Office of Admission assigns the appropriate residency requirement at the time of admission. Our Campus Housing Community Our three residence areas house over 950 full-time, traditional-aged students. Each residence area is supervised by a Residence Director and a team of Resident Advisors. Need More Information? If you read our F.A.Q. and still have more questions, please be sure to ask by giving us a call at 413-662-5249 or e-mail.
