New Residence Building
More information (including the name of this building) will be coming soon!
Welcome to the New Residence Building (NRB) on campus, planned to open in 2027! NRB is designed for mixed-year accommodation and has a mix of traditional and suite-style rooms. Each floor has four 2-bedroom apartments/suites, one Don suite, 14 double rooms, and 14 single rooms, with a total of 51 students living on each floor. The apartments each have their own kitchen and washroom. There are ensuite washrooms between each traditional-style bedroom so four students in double rooms will share one washroom and two students in single rooms will share one washroom. This residence includes other shared spaces such as a lounge on each floor that includes two stoves and two fridges.
