Living & Learning Overlooking the Bay
Housing & Residential Life Options
Living at Cal State East Bay is much more than having your own student apartment, suite, or residence hall room located just a short walk from classes. It's about becoming part of a true living-learning community designed to help you thrive academically, personally, and socially.
It also means participating in stimulating educational, cultural, and social programs designed to help you integrate what you're learning with what you want to achieve - and where you want to go in life. You'll meet people from around the world, share ideas and experiences from the classroom and beyond - and make connections and friendships that will last a lifetime. And you have the choice of living in a spacious student apartment or a cozy dorm room.
