Residence Life
Building the Jefferson Community
Choosing on campus living is choosing to take part in community living at Thomas Jefferson University. We are proud of the residential community that the Department of Housing and Residence Life (DHRL) is able to offer.
Safety & Security
Thomas Jefferson University places a high priority on your personal safety. That is why the TJU Security Department is well-trained, well-staffed and supported by state-of-the-art technology. While living on campus, you can be assured that our Security Department and our wonderful team of desk clerks are working to keep you safe.
Highlights to Living On Campus
Comfort & Convenience
Living on campus will provide better opportunities to meet fellow students with common interests and goals. You will enjoy all of the modern amenities necessary to make your new home a comfortable place to live and one that will help promote your academic endeavors.
Access to Resources (& Fun)
Students come to Jefferson from across the country and around the world. Your time at Jefferson will be one of discovery of people and places . The Residence Life program was developed to assist each resident in discovering one another, campus, and the Philadelphia region.
