Almeida is a residence hall with a difference! Almeida gives you the opportunity to live in an apartment complex two miles off campus but still have all the benefits of living in a residence hall. There is also a shuttle bus that runs every hour to and from campus on Sunday night to Friday afternoon so not having a car is no problem.
Living Space
Almeida consists of three large, separate buildings and a series of units called the Flats and Townhouses. The "200", "300", and "400" buildings each have approximately 22 apartments. In each building there are 10 one-bedroom apartments available for two residents. The remaining apartments have two bedrooms available for three residents. Each building has three floors with the entrance floor located on the second floor. A laundry room is located on the first floor of each building.
Building Facts
- Furnished Apartments - Each apartment is carpeted and has a living room, kitchen, dining room area, bathroom, bedroom(s), and refrigerator. Furniture is provided for the living room, dining area and bedroom(s).
- Meal Plan Options - While Almeida is equipped with private kitchens, residents can still participate in the University's board plan in the Dining Hall. Board options range from full board plans (15 or 19 meals a week) to new breakfast, lunch, or dinner options designed especially for apartment style residents.
Staff
Eight Resident Assistants live at Almeida and will be the primary people for residents to contact about facilities and maintenance concerns. A Coordinator of Residence Education oversees the staff and facility. While Almeida offers students the experience of an off-campus residential environment, University policies are still in effect at Almeida.
