Residential life at Wentworth - the best of both worlds.

With public transportation just steps away and an address in the heart of Boston, Wentworth offers all the excitement of city life. Yet, our close-knit population of 3,000 students also experiences a strong sense of community on our 35-acre campus, which surrounds a tree-lined quad and traditional buildings.

Over half our students live on-campus, in modern, co-ed residential halls that offer traditional rooms, suites and apartments. Each resident hall is staffed by a professional resident director and resident assistants. On-campus dining options are close by, and include a full-service cafeteria and a fast-food café.
