Explore Our Housing

This means that the residential environment directly connects to the mission of the college and a student’s persistence, engagement in learning activities, and their sense of safety and belonging.

Therefore, all students who are enrolled and pursuing an on-campus degree and taking 12 credits or more (including online courses) must live in college-owned housing their first three years. For the complete policy, view Residential Life Housing Policy in the Student Handbook.

First- and second-year students at Hope typically live in a residence hall. Follow the link below to find a listing of all residence halls on campus. Each link will take you to a webpage where you will find details about the community, room features and furniture provided. 

For third and fourth year students, many will transition into a cottage or apartment. Houses (called “cottages”) and small and large apartment complexes surround the core of our campus and are dispersed throughout beautiful downtown Holland. Many of our resident assistants (RAs) will be overseeing their cottage as well as neighboring cottages/apartments. Below you will find a listing of all apartments and cottages. The pages listed below include links that will take you to a webpage where a photo and brief description of the housing location is provided. If you click on the “View location on our campus map” link it will take you to the campus map where you will be able to see where that housing unit is located.

Currently enrolled students with a verified 1Hope email and password can view all of our apartment/cottage housing options on the Housing Units and Details spreadsheet, which will provide information about the number of residents, amenities and pricing tier.
