Just the facts
Each residence hall (all of them co-ed) houses approximately 250 to 330
residents from every class level (freshmen through seniors) and major.
Room types range from doubles and designed triples and quads to five-
and six-person suites. All buildings are split into two
sides (A-L and M-X) with each side generally containing 9 doubles,
one triple, and two suites (one of each capacity) along with an RA room.
Typically, floors will
alternate with residents of one gender living in the doubles and the
other
in the suites. Mohawk is solely made up of 4 and 6 person suites,
alternating between the genders. Each hall also has special activity
rooms available for your use during the
academic
year.
Room Types:
• Standard Doubles: Typical corridor-style room housing two residents.
• Designed Triples: Corner of hallway, much larger than a standard
double and usually houses three residents.
• Five-Person
Suites: Contains a common room, bathroom, a double and a triple.
• Six-Person
Suites: Contains a common room, bathroom, and three doubles.
• Mohawk Suites:
Six-person suites with three bedrooms, a common room and two bathrooms.

Sizes
We strongly recommend students wait to purchase carpeting until they
arrive so they know the exact floor measurements. The following sizes
vary slightly and closet space is included in the measurements (so
for rug sizes, you’ll want to subtract at least a couple feet
of length for closets unless you live in a room that has movable closets):
- Regular Double: 10’9” x 17’ 6” (about 15’9” long after subtracting closet space) (188 sq. ft)
- Double in corner room (only 4 total in CIW): Have 5 walls (3’8”, 19’11”, 5’7”, 12’9”, and 15’5”); 191 sq. ft (have movable closets)
- Mohawk suite rooms: 11’6” x 17’6” (have movable closets)
- Suite room (not Mohawk): 10' 9" x 14’4.3” (about 10' 10" long after subtracting closet space)
- Designed triple in 5 person suite: 11’ x 19’
- Designed double in 5 person suite: 11’ x 14’2”
- Designed triple (not in a suite): Have 5 walls (8’3”, 10’1.5”, 20.5’, 12’10”, and 15’6”); 293 sq. ft (have movable closets)
