Living on Campus
Experience NNU as a Resident
At Northwest Nazarene University, our residence and dining halls play a vital role in building community on our campus. Campus housing creates a cozy space for college life, and the dining hall gives plenty of opportunity to linger over a delicious meal and conversation. This is where students do life together, in these settings perfect for pursuing truth and creating lasting relationships.
Residence Halls
Our residence halls offer a variety of housing options to cater to your preferences and needs. While some are designed for first-year students, with shared rooms and dedicated resident assistants and peer mentors, other apartment-style accommodations satisfy juniors and seniors who want to stay a part of the thriving, on-campus community while enjoying apartment living.

Dining & Meal Plans
At NNU, meals are provided by Fresh Ideas Food Service Management. Except for graduating seniors, all students living on campus are required to carry a meal plan. Plans are purchased per semester and don’t roll over if all meals aren’t used. Any changes to a meal plan need to be made through the Office of Student Life before the last day to add classes each semester.
