The Rutgers-Camden Tower, a 10-story brick tower complex, houses 252 students in 42 suites. Six students share a three-bedroom suite (two students per bedroom) that includes a living room, bath, and vanity area. Each suite is fully furnished and comes equipped with wall-to-wall carpeting, individual controls for heat and air conditioning, and is prewired for telephone and cable TV service. A campus phone is provided that links the residents with all offices on campus and all students residing in university housing. Other amenities include a small kitchen and study lounge on each floor; fully equipped coin or cash card-operated laundromat with a vending area for convenience foods; a computer lab; exercise rooms with steppers, bikes, a treadmill, and a universal system; and a large, comfortable social lounge with a pool table, ping pong table, audio system, and a projection screen TV system that receives cable service.

The entrance to the housing complex is staffed by a uniformed University Police guard 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and the parking lot and grounds surrounding the Towers are monitored by closed-circuit television.

All undergraduate residents must contract for a meal plan through the campus dining service. Meal plans on the Camden campus complement the diversity and uniqueness of the student body by offering several plans developed to meet differing dining preferences.

Space is limited, and assignments are based upon the date of receipt of the completed housing application. Questions regarding on-campus housing should be addressed to the Rutgers-Camden Housing Office, 215 North Third Street, Camden, NJ 08102 (856/225-6471).

Many of the students at the Rutgers-Camden campus choose to reside either at home or in apartments or rooming houses in the vicinity of the campus. A listing of available off-campus housing is maintained at the housing office.
