Upperclass Residence Halls
Upperclass students have many different options when it comes to living at GW. Although all of our upperclass halls vary in room type, and amenities each residence hall is co-ed by room, has wireless internet available throughout the building, and all students have access to Xfinity on Campus.
Each of our upperclass residence halls is managed by one or two full-time professional Community Coordinators.
