Residence Life
Among the most memorable of university experiences is that of living in a student residence hall. All residential facilities at Texas Wesleyan University provide comfortable and attractive living environments. The Office of Residence Life supervises the housing of all students on campus. Each hall has a staff consisting of students and professional staff members dedicated to the community development among residents.
The University has four residence halls on its campus. Stella Russell Hall, Elizabeth Armstrong Hall and OC Armstrong Hall are located just north of the Eunice and James L. West Library. The West Village is located at the corner of Wesleyan St. and Vickery Blvd. Reserved parking for residents is also available. All rooms and lobbies are equipped with cable. The resident rooms in all four residence halls provide a vanity with sink and mirror, desks, beds, bookshelves, closets, and drawers. Residence hall policies and procedures can be found online or obtained at the Housing and Residence Life office.
