Student Housing

Co-ed scholarship halls

KU has 12 scholarship halls, two of which are coed. The "scholarship" is a lower housing rate because everyone completes four to six hours of weekly duties, such as cooking or cleaning for the 50-person community. Students who want a scholarship hall should sign a contract, then fill out the additional materials for scholarship hall application.
