The Office of Residence Life and Housing (ORLH) staff performs a number of tasks that influence residence hall life at Notre Dame. The Office of Residence Life and Housing is responsible for coordinating housing assignments for all on-campus students, as well as managing the waiting list for on-campus housing. This responsibility includes the administration of summer housing. The staff works cooperatively with other University departments to ensure the physical maintenance and security of the residence halls. In addition, the Office of Residence Life and Housing is available as a resource to students who wish to live off-campus.
Also charged with the administration of the University disciplinary system, the ORLH staff publishes, distributes, and implements the policies and procedures that guide student behavior. The ORLH staff responds to all alleged violations of University policy that are referred by members of the community. They also work cooperatively with rectors in the selection, supervision, and training of hall staff, implement educational and social programming initiatives, and serve as a training and information resource to the Student Government Judicial Council president. Additionally, ORLH staff provides assistance to students experiencing a wide variety of difficulties (e.g. family problems, harassment, sexual assault, substance abuse, eating disorders). The ORLH staff may also refer students to support services on or off campus.
The ORLH is one of the ten departments in the Division of Student Affairs.
The office is located on the west wing of the Main Building (under the golden dome) in suite 305. We are open from 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM during regular University operating days.
