Living in Residence at Carleton

Welcome to Carleton Residence! Living on campus is more than just a bed and a meal plan – it is a lifestyle promoting learning outside of the classroom, personal growth and development, community support and engagement and leadership development. Our residences offer a space for students to study, interact and develop positive relationships, while continuing to reflect on their goals and purpose.
