Get Involved
Within the residential experience, students will find a number of opportunities to get involved and contribute to their community in dynamic ways, such as: pre-assigning, serving as a student intern or residential student leader, and more. Some of Stanford’s residences provide credit-bearing enrichment opportunities for pre-assignees and residents through residentially-based courses, and some are even open to the whole campus!
