Welcome to Residence Life at Wheaton College! We’re excited for you to join our campus community.
The significance of living in community cannot be overestimated! Ask graduates about their college years, and most will say that the closest relationships developed and the greatest lessons were learned in the context of residential living.
Along with attending classes, going to chapel and participating in activities outside the classroom, living on-campus is one of the four building blocks of a Wheaton student’s educational experience. Together, these four building blocks help the College pursue its mission of developing students into whole and effective servants for Christ and His Kingdom.
We believe it is vital for students to be immersed in community living so that key life-to-life encounters may occur. In community living, students give and receive, are shaped by and contribute to campus life and are challenged to integrate learning with their choices.
