Beyond the Classroom
Being part of a campus community is like being part of a large family. While we may not all get a chance to eat dinner together, campus life brings us together.
Resident students can choose from single rooms to apartment style living. All three Residence Halls feature lounge spaces and live in staff.
The dining hall in the Granito Center always seems to be the hub of campus activity (a lot like your kitchen at home). Choose from five different meal plans to fit your budget (plus one just for commuter students).
Student-athlete or just a sports fan? Either way, Dominican University athletes play on 19 Division II varsity teams and have won numerous conference championships. Come out and play, or just cheer the Chargers on to victory.
