Residence Life

Cook College has three modern and attractive residence halls, which together house approximately 600 students. First-year students are housed in these halls whenever possible because of the advantages that residence hall living offers to students new to the campus. Each hall is staffed by a professional resident director and student resident and safety assistants, all of whom are available on a regular basis. The staff organizes hall events, handles problems, maintains study hours, and answers any questions the residents might have.

The college also has two large apartment complexes, totaling approximately 320 units, that provide housing for most of Cook's upper-class students, who enjoy the mixture of independence and practical responsibilities that apartment living entails. Professional resident directors and student resident assistants also live throughout the apartment area and generally are available to help coordinate social functions, provide counseling, or deal with residents' housing problems.

In addition, 38 male and female students live and work together at Cook's cooperative living unit, Helyar House, a small, modern residence hall where students can reduce college expenses by helping with maintenance, ordering supplies, and preparing meals. Residents of Helyar House are selected with preference given for financial need.
