All
full-time students of the University are assigned to Halls
of Residence. When applying for admissions, students must
indicate their preference for a particular Hall. Assignment
to a Hall does not mean that a student is offered residence.
Only full-time students of the university are eligible to
apply for accommodations on campus and only a small percentage
of those applying can be housed.
Halls of Residence
There are five Halls
of Residence on the Mona Campus: two single sex, Mary Seacole
and Chancellor Hall, housing females and males respectively
and four co-ed halls namely A.Z Preston, Irvine, Taylor and
Rex Nettleford Hall. Approximately 1440 student are accommodated
each year. Each hall of residence is administered by a Student
Services Manager who is assisted by Resident Advisors, a Hall
Operations Supervisor and Service Staff.
The resident hall
community is a vital part of students' learning experience
and promotes and supports the mission of the University. The
Halls provide students with a wide range of activities and
programmes designed to provide a rounded university education.
Healthy competitions in sports, drama, debate and other related
activities bring out the natural endowment of our students.
Students' Hall government
provides the opportunity for practical leadership development
and creates the opportunity for a structured communal life.
Hall Committee members are elected by member of the respective
Hall and any student attached to a given Hall is eligible
to run for any office on that hall committee.
