Graduate Student Housing

**Assignment update: As of August 18th, 2023, all spaces in Ivy Hall were reserved. We will maintain a waitlist, but placement in that building is not guaranteed. Please keep in mind, the rate below is ONLY offered for Ivy Hall. We are happy to discuss available options elsewhere on campus and what those associated rates may be.**

We offer graduate and law school housing in Ivy Hall Apartments and Cedar Dell Townhouses which will make finding reasonably priced housing on a graduate or law school budget much easier.

Living on campus benefits

convenient location close to your department
furnished units and common areas
parking in a lot adjacent to the building (with paid parking decal)
free internet, free utilities (heat, electricity, trash, water), and free laundry
on-campus security from UMass Dartmouth police
on-campus UMass Dartmouth exercise facilities
free bus service to Fall River, New Bedford, and the surrounding area with your UMass Pass

Ivy Hall apartments offer mostly four-bedroom apartments with 2 baths, while the Cedar Dell townhouses offer mostly six-bedroom units with 1.5 baths. Both communities offer a single bedroom for each assigned student and a shared kitchen, and dining/living room.

What does it cost to live on campus for graduate students?

Location	Bedrooms	Cost per month (billed for a full semester at once)
Ivy Hall	4	$750 per person
Cedar Dell	6	$500 per room, with the option to buy out an additional room in your unit to use as study space!

Living on campus is a wonderful option for housing with easy access to dining, academic support, and everything else you'll need on campus— giving you more time to study, conduct research, and socialize. Even better, you may be able to use your financial aid to cover your housing costs.
