Apartments and cottages

Upperclassmen can live in campus apartments or cottages that accommodate 3 to 6 students per unit.

Bolks Apartments

The 3 Bolks Apartment buildings were constructed between 2001 and 2003. Each apartment accommodates 4 to 6 students and has a living room, kitchen, and 2 or 3 bedrooms.

Courtyard Village

Courtyard Village apartments accommodate 3 to 4 students per apartment as well as married couples. These also have a living room, kitchen and multiple bedrooms.

Cottages

Select houses—or cottages—on campus may also host students. Cottages are often designated as themed houses. Northwestern students have lived in Mission House, Spanish House and Wilderness House.
