A Note from the Director
There is a lot of information that parents and families need to know as their student moves through their college experience. In these pages, you will find information pertinent to your student living on campus. Studies have shown that students who live on campus tend to have a better grade point average, graduate earlier, and are more satisfied with their college experience. The Office of Housing and Residential Life works hard to provide a comprehensive and educational experience that complements their academic experience. If there is anything we can do to help your student, please do not hesitate to email us at housing@wit.edu.

Housing Accommodations
Full-time students who wish to live in housing, are in good academic, judicial, and financial standing with the Institute, have paid the housing deposit, and have needs that may necessitate a specific housing assignment may request accommodations by going through the Housing Accommodations Process. Students must submit a request to the Office of Housing & Residential Life stating what accommodations they are seeking and must have medical documentation supporting the request. Students must reapply for accommodations each time that they are going through the housing selection or assignment process. For more information please visit the Housing Accommodations Process page.
Monthly Email Bulletins
If you would like to get a monthly email with news and information from the Wentworth Housing and Residential Life Office, especially for parents, please email the Director of Housing, Phillip Bernard.
Residence Hall Linens Program
The beds at Wentworth Institute of Technology are extra long and not all standard twin size. The Residence Hall Association has partnered with Residence Hall Linens to give students a simple option for bedding that will fit the extra-long mattresses in our residence halls. The Residence Hall Linens program has everything your student needs including extra long twin sheets and comforters, matching towels, and storage items. There are currently over 23 color combinations available for bedding options.
Proceeds from this program go back to residential student organizations. Linens are delivered to your home during the summer, and shipping is free for all Value Pak orders. People who have taken advantage of this offer in the past recommend ordering early – popular colors can sell out quickly. Please visit the RHL website for more information.
