Housing

Mississippi State’s residence halls are a lot more than just a place to sleep - they’re part of the thriving “city” of campus. In most cases, you’re a quick walk away from classrooms, meeting places and dining facilities.

Our halls aren’t like your parents’ old “dorm” rooms. All rooms offer Internet access, as well as cable TV and local telephone service with call waiting, voice mail and caller I.D. capability. Each room is equipped with a refrigerator/freezer/microwave combination unit.

Even more exciting is our newest residence hall - Ruby Hall - which opened for freshmen in fall 2005. The 400-bed facility is the first on campus to offer private baths and is fully furnished.

The second phase of construction calls for another new residence hall - housing 800 students - to be constructed soon.

And it’s not all about convenience. We also strive to keep our residence halls safe. Each hall has controlled card-reader access, fire extinguishers and a fire security system. Each room, in turn, is equipped with a smoke detector and deadbolt lock.
