Your Campus Home
Living on campus isn't just about the ease of getting to class and activities - it is about late-night study sessions, meeting life-long friends and learning new things about yourself. There is nothing quite like living and learning in the heart of the Washburn community. To help everyone find the right home, we offer six housing facilities with traditional, suite-style and apartment options. No matter what your choice, you'll be safe with secure facilities and our very own Washburn University Police Department on duty 24/7.
