Housing Information for New Incoming Freshmen - Fall 2008

All TCNJ first-year students will be living in one of The First Year experience residence halls:

  • Travers Hall
  • Wolfe Hall
  • Cromwell Hall

Within these halls, all first year students will be housed based upon the First-Year Seminar Program (FSP) academic course that they register for at June orientation. With an average class size of 15 students, there will be approximately 3 FSP seminar classes on each residence hall floor. Note: Due to housing placement based upon FSP courses, Housing can not guarantee single gender buildings or floors.
