LIVING ON CAMPUS
Love Living on Campus
Welcome Home
H O U S I N G
National studies have shown that students who live on
campus earn higher grades, are more likely to graduate,
and report high levels of satisfaction with their collegiate
experience. Utah Global students are required to live in
campus housing during their first year. Although most
residence halls are coeducational (for both men and
women), students live in dorm rooms with roommates of
the same gender.
Students at Utah Global can choose from three housing
options, including triple, double, and single residence hall
rooms.
Note: Single-gender housing options are available.
Option A: Triple residence hall rooms house three
students sharing one bedroom. These three students
share a bathroom connected to their room and the room
of two other students in an adjoining suite.
Option B: Double residence hall rooms house two
students sharing one bedroom. These two students share
a bathroom connected to their room and the room of two
or three other students in an adjoining suite.
Option C: Single residence hall rooms house one student
who has a private bedroom and a shared bathroom with
one other suitemate.
Single residence housing options are limited. Apply early to increase your chances of obtaining a single.
D I N I N G
Students living on campus are required to have a meal
plan as they will have very limited access to the kitchen
facilities in their building. Luckily, the Dining Room serves
delicious food and is close by! The Peterson Heritage
Center Dining Room is centrally located on the east
campus, where student housing is also located. The
Dining Room offers a diverse selection of food, including:
• Salads, sandwiches, pizza, pasta, fresh grill, cereal bar, sweets
• Your Region: featuring cuisine from around the U.S.
• Your World: featuring cuisine from around the globe
• Vegan and vegetarian
• Sushi bar
• G8 Allergen Friendly: food guaranteed to be prepared without the top eight most common allergen (dairy, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, eggs, gluten/
wheat)
Also within the Dining Room is the Crimson Corner, a
twenty-four-hour convenience store offering Starbucks
coffee, some light meal options, and halal meals.
Additionally, the Marriott Honors Market is open twenty-
four hours a day and the Lassonde Miller Cafe is open
extended hours until 1:00 a.m.
Utah Global students will have two dining meal options
based on the number of meals per week, per semester.
Students will also be provided a limited number of
takeaway meals during the semester as well as flex dollars
to be spent at dining locations across campus.
