Where Campus Feels Like a Second Home

Thomas College Residential Life

Whether you choose to live in college housing or commute each day, Thomas College’s residential life will feel like a welcoming family. About 85% of first-year students live on campus; and from day one, you’ll experience the amenities, support systems, and programming you need to feel right at home. 

Campus Residences

Every student residence has lounges, study areas, computer labs, laundry facilities, vending machines, and wireless internet. Each room comes with a bed, bureau, desk, cable TV, and a high-speed internet port. You can even apply for themed housing, where all students have a common objective, like quiet time for studies, or a shared interest, like gaming.

Student Commons

Our Spann Student Commons is a central hub for residential life on campus and a welcoming place for students and Thomas community members to gather. It includes the campus store, the Dog Pound, the atrium lounge, game tables, meeting rooms, and space to screen movies or host events. Our Dining Center has fantastic food to enjoy with friends or to grab and go on your way to class. Over at the Library, Jeanie’s Cafe serves your favorite Starbucks coffee.

Diversity Statement

Thomas College is committed to building a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community that fosters professional, intellectual, and social advancement. We proudly recognize that our differences as well as our commonalities promote the integrity and resilience our students need for the evolving world we serve.  

We are committed to providing the leadership, guidance, and resources necessary to promote campus diversity, mutual respect, fairness, and appreciation of differences. Thomas College pledges through its policies and procedures to support all efforts to educate its members about our goals and to hold all members of the community to the standards found in both our Employee Handbook and the Student Conduct Code that honor the unique and valuable contributions of each individual member of our community.

Note: The “Safe Space” sticker, as seen on hundreds of college campuses nationally, sends an important message to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ+) students, colleagues, and their allies. The message is one of understanding, non-judgment, and knowledge of LGBTQ+ needs and concerns. It is symbolic of a willingness and commitment to providing an atmosphere of unqualified acceptance and assistance and is obtained after the completion of a training session provided during the academic year.
