The true college experience doesn’t happen just in the classroom. It happens on your way to Ruth’s Marketplace with your friends. It happens during a study session with your floormates.
It happens while you’re up late having a heart-to-heart with your roommate. It’s what happens when you live on campus. That’s why St. Norbert offers a four-year residential college experience.
Residential Education & Housing provides many types of housing to meet student needs, including residence halls, suite-style living arrangements, apartments, townhouses and houses. We even have halls dedicated to community-service initiatives, the Honors Program and residential themed communities.
When you first enroll at St. Norbert College, you’ll be assigned to one of our first-year student housing options. As you progress through your four years here, you’ll have increasingly independent options, such as townhouses, apartments or college-owned houses.
You’ll live in a residence hall and have a full campus meal plan, so you’re free to focus on settling in. Explore our halls listed below, and check out what to bring to put your stamp on your space. First-year residence halls are co-educational and you’ll have a roommate (who you can often pair with in advance).
Every hall has programming activities coordinated by resident assistants. There are opportunities to get involved in planning activities or be a Residence Hall Association rep, both great ways to get to know people. Some halls are popular with certain majors: education majors like Sensenbrenner because the Children’s Center is right in the building, and Bergstrom is home to students in the Honors Program.
Live-in resident assistants (RAs), community assistants (CAs) and area coordinators (ACs) are available 24/7 to help manage our residential communities. They help smooth the transition to college, offer engaging in-hall programs, and commit themselves to making your campus living experience comfortable, enjoyable and safe.
Do you want to grow in your faith while living in community? Apply by Feb. 14, 2026, to be considered in the first round of acceptances.
Starting your second year, you have a wider range of options for student housing. Housing application open in December, and room selection takes place in the spring semester for the following academic year’s housing.
The majority of sophomores still live in residence halls, including MMM, VMC and St. Joseph Hall. There’s also the option to apply for a single room in Burke Hall.
You also have the option of completing an academic year of service-learning together off campus. The Service Program is a great option for students who’d like to learn about social justice issues and build intentional, meaningful relationships with other students and the local community.
You can now apply for many more styles of student housing, including:
College houses: Shared houses in De Pere for groups of up to six, close to campus.
Townhouses: Three-bedroom houses for groups of six in the Manion Townhouse Village overlooking the Fox River.
Themed communities: Groups of third- and fourth-year students who share academic or co-curricular interests can apply to live together while involved in service in the Green Bay community.
Single rooms in shared apartments (Gries Hall) or in small residence halls for females (Doksany Hall) or males (Roggenburg Hall).
