Housing options
Explore our on- and off-campus housing options and discover the living situation that's best for you.
Living on campus
Apply early to residence — you don't need to wait for your program acceptance!
Living in a Sheridan residence is perhaps the easiest way to begin your transition to Sheridan. It will provide you with the opportunity to quickly make lasting friendships, the comfort of living at a ‘home away from home,’ and the convenience of everything you need to live and study happily.
Why live in residence?
Convenience
Living on campus means your classes, support services and campus activities are just steps away. Fast-track your familiarity with campus and take advantage of everything it has to offer. You’ll be in the heart of the action at Sheridan.
Community
Residence offers a safe space for you to connect with fellow Sheridan students and build life-long friendships. The Residence Life team is always developing new and innovative programs to help build community.
Support
Being away at school can sometimes be tough. Living in residence will give you access to additional supports to help you transition from high school to college. We’ll make sure you always feel safe. Front-desk staff are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the Residence Life team helps promote and support the delivery of services through Sheridan’s Wellness and Counselling Services.
“Being a Resident Advisor was truly life changing for me. I was a very reserved person and taking that responsibility forced me to burst out of my bubble and be able to improve other student experiences and make a lot of friends.”
