The Colony is divided into three sections — North, East and West Colony. While the apartments look the same in each section, students can choose to be closer to the Health Science Campus in West Colony, Yeager Center in North Colony or the music and engineering buildings in East Colony.
Residents can enjoy a variety of events, programs and gatherings throughout the semester, making Colony a community focal point.
