This nationally renowned institution is heralded as an innovative leader in pedagogy, and has received international acclaim as a pioneer in developing a measurable, outcome-focused curriculum in which the individual student can grow as a learner. The School Sisters of St. Francis are the founders and sponsors of the college.

All first-year residents are housed in Austin hall. New, first-year students to the residence hall are housed in double rooms. Sophomores, juniors, seniors and transfer students are eligible to reside in large and small single rooms if they are available. During the academic year, the room becomes a “home away from home.” It wants the students to be as comfortable as possible. Each double room is furnished with blinds, two single beds, built-in desk and drawers, desk chairs, a built-in bookshelf, closets, a sink and vanity, a microwave/refrigerator unit, a telephone jack (students provide their own phone), a computer network/internet connection jack, and a cable television outlet.

A quieter housing option is provided in Clare hall to upper-class and nontraditional age students who prefer more privacy. Sophomores, juniors, seniors and students over the age of 22 are eligible to live in Clare hall if they have lived on campus for one academic year, are free of an outstanding business office balance, and are in good standing within the residence hall. Living in Clare hall is a privilege for those students who want the convenience of living on campus, with the freedom of independent living.
