Residence Halls

Nobody goes to college expecting to live in a mansion. But you may be surprised when you see the features and views of our campus residences.

Illinois Tech's Jeanne and John Rowe Village was named one of the “coolest dorms in the nation” by U.S. News & World Report and one of “10 College Dorms That Put Your Apartment to Shame” by HuffPost. And our George J. Kacek Hall was designed by legendary architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe.

College is about lasting friendships, and you’ll find those in our residence halls. You’ll also find your space—and room to be yourself. Quiet places when you need it, and places to kick back when it’s time to unwind. Make instant friends just by walking down the hall. Have a late-night debate in the lounge. Round up a group for a pick-up game.

Most of all, have fun.
