Residence Life


The close-knit Jewell community offers students an unmatched living and learning experience. Our four-year residential community encourages you to get involved and creates an environment that instantly feels like home. And you can even bring your pet!

What To Bring

You can come to Jewell knowing all rooms have a bed (with an extra long, twin mattress), 4-6 drawer dresser, desk, chair, wardrobe or closet space and Internet access for each resident. Students supply their own bed linens, including pillows. In each residence hall, you will find lounge areas with a large TV, a kitchen and/or microwave/refrigerator access, laundry facilities and vending machines for those late-night study sessions. We have staff living in every building. You will find our staff friendly, helpful and willing to serve you — the resident.

For planning purposes, please know Jewell prohibits the following items in student rooms: hot plates, toasters (all kinds), coffee makers with heating elements, or anything with an exposed heating element. Also note these items can be stored and used in the common area kitchenettes, located in each building, for student use. Not sure if you can bring something? Just e-mail the Residence Life Staff, and we will let you know!

Here's a list of ideas on what to bring to Jewell.
