Message from Hopeville residence officer:

Thank you for choosing to live with us; Our dynamic team welcomes you!

We aim to provide a safe, clean, convenient, and supportive home away from home. We are eager to offer residence programs and facilities designed to help you make meaningful connections with others while you succeed in your academic pursuits. Did you know residence students are more likely to graduate? It’s true!

Our House Committee (HC) members are trained and ready to support you this year. The residence life team has engaging, fun, and memorable programming planned for you. Get to know your House Comm and block leaders; they are here to guide and support you, so feel free to ask them anything.

Role of the residence management team

At Hopeville – and NWU, we view residence as much more than accommodations. Our team is here to assist in making your stay with us enjoyable and successful. Residence alumni tell us that one of the best parts of university was the life-long friendships they made in Hopeville residence.

Community Living

We strive to create a positive experience for everyone. By living with us, you are choosing to be an active member in an inclusive community. You can help shape a great experience for yourself and your fellow residence students. We focus on the health and well-being of the whole community to support Hopeville residence students in their personal and academic pursuits.

Take Advantage of Activities & Opportunities

University is not about who you were or where you’re from, but who you are and who you’re becoming. This is your opportunity to expand your horizons - meet new people, try something new, immerse yourself in campus life, and take advantage of the activities and resources available. At Hopeville residence, we promote developing a welcoming, caring, and inclusive community fostering unique learning opportunities and experiences far outside classes and residence.

Suggestions or Comments

I encourage you to get out of your comfort zone at least once while you are here, ask questions when you aren’t sure of something, and continue to be authentically yourself. Residence is a dynamic place that is home to many students from all walks of life with the goal of completing an undergraduate degree in a field of their passion. Make this your year to connect with others with like-minded views and interests, challenge yourself to step in others' shoes, and create more meaningful connections that last a lifetime.
