What's Included In Your Room
We believe one of the most important ways to feel at home is to make sure your room is equipped with everything you need. That means giving you a foundation, but also providing the space to make your room uniquely yours; a place to call home.
House Facilities
Going Above and Beyond
This College House is made up of two separate houses, Kings Court and English House. The Houses are connected by an award-winning courtyard, which is one of the community’s most beautiful and historic green spaces. Adorning its outdoor walls are murals by the world-renowned artist Isaiah Zagar, known for his vibrant and colorful mosaics. Inside, you’ll find paintings illustrated by our very own students, an intimate atrium dining café, a large multimedia common space, and a quiet library for students to study.
