On-Campus Living

Creighton University offers on-campus housing for full-time, undergraduate matriculated students. If space allows, the University may permit the housing of part-time, graduate, and professional students in University residence halls. All unmarried, undergraduate students from outside the immediate Omaha area, as defined by the University, are required to live in University residence halls during their freshman and sophomore years. Students from the Omaha area may live in the residence halls. Otherwise, during their first two years at the university, students from the Omaha area must live with a parent or guardian unless given permission by the Assistant Vice Provost for Housing & Auxiliary Services, or their designee, to live elsewhere.

Requests for exemption from the live on campus requirements must be made electronically to the Assistant Vice Provost for Housing & Auxiliary Services or their designee via email at Living@creighton.edu. Requests must be made by July 15th for the upcoming fall semester, and by December 1st for the upcoming spring semester.

  • Deglman Hall: Double occupancy, traditional-style freshman residence hall with common bathroom facilities.
  • Graves Hall: Suite-style with four students per suite.

The residence hall agreement is for room and board. All freshman and sophomore residents are required to have a meal plan. Residents living in Deglman, Graves, Kiewit, Swanson, and McGloin must purchase either the All Access, 14, or 10 meal plan. Sophomore residents of Kenefick Hall, Heider Hall, and Davis Square must purchase the All Access, 14, 10, or Apartment 7 meal plan option. Exemptions (for example, for religious or medical reasons) to meal plan requirements may be requested electronically to the Assistant Vice Provost for Housing & Auxiliary Services or their designee, via email at Living@creighton.edu. Generally, the University Dining Services is able to meet most dietary needs. Board plans are also available to off campus and commuting students.

Meals are served in the Brandeis and Harper dining halls located adjacent to the campus residence halls. More information about dining opportunities is available from Creighton Dining at https://creighton.sodexomyway.com.
