A college without dorms? That's right, you won't find a single dormitory on Kirkwood's campus. However, nearly 4,000 Kirkwood students are able to live in privately-owned housing adjacent to the main campus. The apartments offer the space and privacy that typical dorms can not, with the convenience and security of being next to campus.
Most complexes are within walking distance and if you don't bring a car you can ride the bus! Kirkwood Students ride Cedar Rapids bus route #7 for FREE! Check out the map and schedule.

Make sure to contact your new roommate to introduce yourself and cover the “who’s bringing what” subject. Do you need help finding a roommate? There is a Facebook Group called "Kirkwood Roommate Finder" online for help finding a roommate.
You will also want to make sure you cover issues like monthly bill payments, a cleaning schedule, and other apartment responsibilities right away. Who knows, the future best man or maid of honor in your wedding may be out there...or at least someone that won't eat your food or wear your clothes all the time! |

Moving away from home and living with someone new is a big, and sometimes scary, part of the college experience.
Each apartment complex has a great working relationship with Kirkwood. Rest assured that we have many fun activities planned for each semester of the school year to make sure that you will be socialized around campus.
Check our our Student Life website for more information on things to do and programs to get involved with on campus! |
