Learn about Living in Annandale-on-Hudson

  • On-Campus Housing
    With over 40 different residence halls on campus, there are tons of unique housing opportunities.  In your first year on campus you are assigned to available space, however after your first year our housing selection process sets you up to select any specific room, join a suite, or engage in a themed living community based on what you are seeking in your residential experience.
  • Off-Campus Housing
    Students with more than 59 credits, including transfer students, are able to live off campus. About 15 percent of the junior and senior class choose to live off campus, typically in the nearby villages of Red Hook, Tivoli, Rhinebeck, and Germantown, and in the city of Kingston.  To live off campus, all students must register with and be approved by the office of Residence Life to avoid fines or fee.
