The best parts of residential life are student-driven. Help plan activities, share your voice in house leadership, and contribute to traditions that make your community unique — getting involved starts right where you live.
Opportunities
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!
Pre-Assignment
Students apply for university theme houses through the Pre-Assignment process. Some of Stanford's on-campus residences feature specialized academic, cultural, social, or leadership programs, while others operate as co-ops, where residents collectively manage cooking and cleaning responsibilities.
