Residence Halls
Traditional Residence Halls – Where Community Comes First
Looking to meet new people, get involved, and make the most of your time at TSU? Our traditional residence halls are the perfect place to start. Located right on the main campus, these halls put you at the center of student life—just steps from your classes, events, and everything happening at TSU.
From late-night convos in the lounge to hall-wide events, intramural games, and guest speakers, you’ll always be surrounded by people, opportunities, and experiences that keep you engaged and growing. If you’re looking to build friendships, explore campus life, and stay connected to everything TSU has to offer—traditional housing is where it all happens.
Suite-Style Living – Your Space, Your Comfort
Suite-style halls at TSU offer a more private and comfortable living experience—perfect for upperclassmen ready for the next level of campus life. With jack-and-jill style bathrooms, gender-separated floors, and double or triple occupancy rooms, you’ll enjoy more personal space while staying close to everything TSU has to offer. Suite-style housing is ideal for students who want a little more independence without missing out on campus connection.
SUITE-STYLE RESIDENCE HALLS INCLUDE:
- Rudolph Residence Center (Women’s Facility)
- Hale Hall (Co-Ed Facility)
New Housing Facility – A mix of housing options
Opened in Fall 2022, TSU’s New Housing Facility is our newest and most versatile residence hall, offering a range of living options to fit your needs and lifestyle. Whether you’re looking for a shared double, a private single, a semi-suite, or even apartment-style living, this building has it all—right in the heart of campus.
Designed with modern amenities and flexible room layouts, the New Housing Facility gives you the freedom to live your way, while staying connected to the TSU community.

Live Where the Action Is—Right Here on Campus
Why just go to TSU when you can live the full experience? Campus housing puts you steps away from your classes, friends, events, and everything in between. Whether you want a traditional hall, suite-style, or apartment-style living, we’ve got options to fit your preferences. It’s more than a place to sleep—it’s where you’ll make memories, find support, and truly BELONG. Live the legacy. TSU Housing is where it all begins.
