VISION
Residential Life and Housing at VCU will be a preeminent urban, public on-campus community providing a one-of-a-kind residential experience.
MISSION
Residential Life and Housing at VCU provides safe, inclusive, and well-maintained facilities where we work together to build intentional communities to empower residents in their academic excellence, citizenship, and personal growth.
Values
Guiding this mission is a set of departmental values, which complement the core values of the institution.
Collaboration
We value the exchange of ideas and solutions through internal and external partnerships. This value is exemplified through the enhancement of the residential experience through training, community building, policy development, and integration of services.
Inclusion & Diversity
We value celebration, exploration, and understanding among people, ideas and culture. This value is exemplified through creation of a safe and inclusive environment for all students to explore identities of self and others; promoting a life-long commitment to successful living in a global community; and ensuring that policies, programs, and services are inclusive and reflect the diversity of our community.
Resident Centered
We value and recognize that our residents are at the core of our mission and practices. This value is exemplified in our commitment to encouraging and promoting the student voice and providing opportunities for comprehensive student learning, student development, and student leadership.
Learning
We value academic and personal success for all students. This value is exemplified through our emphasis on engagement and education outside the classroom and ensuring a dynamic residential setting where discovery, challenge and support, innovation, and respectful discourse are paramount to the on-campus experience of the student.
Excellence
We value the individual and collective pursuit of exceptional practice in our work and relationships. This value is exemplified through high expectations of staff and students in the residential community. Staff and students continually seek ways to contribute to the future of the department, division, institution, and profession.
Message from the Director
The Residential Life and Housing department encompasses 5 major areas: Administrative Services, Conferences and Mail Services, Facilities and Desk Operations, Residential Initiatives, and Residential Life. Each of these areas are essential in providing a comprehensive residential experience. Our mission is to provide safe, inclusive, and well-maintained facilities where we build intentional communities to empower residents in their academic excellence, citizenship, and personal growth.
On-campus living creates an environment to help students succeed. Not only is on-campus housing steps away from academic resources, but living among classmates makes it easier to connect with friends, host study groups or simply share resources. We offer a variety of on-campus housing options for both first-year and upperclass residents. On-campus housing offers more than just a place to sleep: it is an integral part of the VCU experience. If you have any questions about our website or if we can provide any assistance, please do not hesitate in contacting us at vcuhousing@vcu.edu. Thank you for taking the time to visit our website.
