Student Housing That Supports Academic Success

Why Where Students Live Matters

Research consistently shows that living environment influences academic engagement, persistence, and student success—not just convenience.

What the Research Shows

01

Academic Engagement & Persistence

Multi-institution higher-education studies have found that students living in campus residential environments demonstrate higher academic engagement and are more likely to persist than peers living off campus.

02

Higher GPA, Retention, and Graduation

Institutional analysis from the University of Connecticut found that students living in campus housing during early academic years achieved higher GPAs and improved retention and graduation outcomes compared with similar off-campus students.

03

Academic Stability Over Time

Peer-reviewed longitudinal research indicates that student housing environments can support stable or improving academic performance across semesters.

Outcomes vary by individual. Findings reflect population-level trends observed in credible academic research.

Income Without Academic Trade-Offs

Many students need part-time work. On-site employment within student housing removes common risks of off-campus jobs—long commutes, late hours, and schedule conflicts.

Paid roles within the community allow students to earn income in a safe, professional environment that prioritizes academics.

For parents, this means:

01

Less time lost to commuting

02

Reduced safety risk

03

Work experience with accountability

04

Lower financial pressure during the school year

Secure access, on-site teams, and defined operational standards ensure students are supported and parents know who is responsible.
