South Donahue

Beds Added for Academic Year 2024-25

Due to an increased demand for on-campus housing, University Housing is adding additional beds to 50 of our 2 bedroom/2 bathroom suites in order to accommodate 100 additional first year, freshmen students. These suites are our Double Room (Shared) floorplan. This new floorplan will accommodate 2 residents per bedroom (double occupancy), and 4 residents per suite. Residents will share the common living and kitchen space. Each bedroom in our Double Room (Shared) floorplan will come furnished with two extra-long twin beds, two stackable chest of drawers, and two desks and desk chairs. These suites will be available during room selection as well as manual assignments, as space is available. The rental rate for our new floorplan is now available on our Rental Rate page.

Opened in 2013, South Donahue Hall is home to approximately 500 undergraduate students in five floors of suite-style living. Most South Donahue suites include two bedrooms with private bathroom and a shared living room and kitchenette. There are also a limited number of one bedroom/one bathroom suites and four bedroom/two bathroom suites. Each bedroom is furnished with a queen sized bed (excluding the double room shared floor plan), desk and chair, chest of drawers and open closet. The living room/common area is furnished with a sofa and side chair, entertainment unit, a wall-mounted 42” flat screen TV, quartz counter with two chairs (or a table and two chairs in ADA units). The kitchen area includes a microwave, refrigerator, sink, cabinet space, and a front-loading, high-efficiency washer and dryer unit. Residents will receive their mail and packages at the mailroom located on the 1st floor. Mail Services provides the mailing address for your new home. The Edge at Central Dining is close in proximity, and a convenience store is located on the first floor. South Donahue Hall does not close at Thanksgiving, Winter, and Spring breaks.
