Scholarship Halls

Be part of this tradition-filled community. Give us 30 seconds--we'll show you everything.

KU has 12 scholarship halls, two co-ed halls (KK Amini and Grace Pearson), six women's halls and four men's halls. The "scholarship" is a lower housing rate because everyone completes two to three 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. Rooms are selected by the students in a process determined by each hall. Tours are available from 11 a.m.-5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Check in for the tour at Crawford Community Center, 1346 Louisiana.

Crawford Community Center is available for current scholarship hall residents during these hours:

Currently, Scholarship Halls are full and have a wait list. Those who are on the waiting list should choose a residence hall room during the time of your group number. If you applied, you are now one of more than 100 incoming students on a scholarship hall waiting list. To guarantee your space in KU Student Housing, select a residence hall space during your group number selection time.

However, during the summer, a few students will change their plans and openings will become available in the scholarship halls. Additionally, we will have openings after the fall semester as students graduate early or decide to Study Abroad, for instance. We will continue to send offers to those on the waitlist on a rolling basis. If we email you with a scholarship hall offer, log in to the KU portal to accept the offer (instructions will be in the email) and we will switch you to the scholarship hall community.
