Tiffin University is a crossroads: we represent who you are now and who you will become. Not only will you find yourself, you will create your best you. Our living-learning environment gives you a home away from home and prepares you for life.
Our students live on campus for the first three years of their time in Tiffin because we believe it is an important part of the college experience. You learn about yourself, how to make it on your own and, best of all, meet people who will broaden your world and become friends for life. Our community reflects the diverse world we live in and creates an opportunity to meet new people you never thought you would.
We offer affordable residence halls and apartments that inspire academic achievement, student involvement, personal and professional development, while focusing on community, safety, wellness, inclusion and respect. TU’s Residence Life Office aspires to develop students who want to be civically engaged, professionally focused and life-long learners. We believe the development of independent decision-making skills is an important part of college.
Tiffin University’s on-campus housing offers a variety of options within our residence halls. Because TU is built around real student engagement, you will find a caring, supportive group of friends in the hall that you choose to live. Community engagement leads to lasting, sincere relationships, and lifelong friendships!
TU promotes a family-style approach of small group living that creates “community.” Living on campus is an excellent opportunity to get to know other TU students, often from other cultures. This interaction leads to a development of self-identity, realization of strengths and weaknesses, greater maturity and a broadening of one’s perspectives. You will find it’s easier to share talents, experiences and skills through on-campus living.
