Bryant University. The Character of Success

First Year Halls

In order to ease the transition into college life, first year students are placed together. This allows students to meet people with similar interests and form lasting friendships.

Bryant offers several accommodation styles for first year students:

  • Traditional double rooms - this is a shared bedroom with one other student.
  • Double rooms in a suite - this is a shared bedroom with one other student that opens into a suite.
  • Three person rooms - this is a shared bedroom with two other students. This is not a "triple" room, as it was designed to accommodate three students and is larger than a traditional double room.
  • Quad rooms - this is a shared bedroom with three other students; all students have ample space as this room is extremely large.
  • Triple rooms - this is a shared bedroom with two other students in a "traditional double room", students placed in this accommodation receive a discounted room rate. View Information about triple rooms.
