Independent Living Expectations at Beacon College

At Beacon College, we believe that learning to live independently is a vital part of the college experience. While we offer coaching and guidance to help students build these skills, we also expect them to take personal responsibility for their own self-care and daily routines.

This includes, but is not limited to: • Managing personal hygiene

• Keeping their residence hall or apartment clean and safe for shared living • Following health and safety standards that impact the entire community

These expectations apply to both apartment-style and traditional dorm-style housing . Maintaining a clean, hygienic living space is not simply a personal preference – it’s essential to the health and well-being of the student and those around them. When students struggle in these areas, staff step in with support and interventions. However, if a student is unable or unwilling to meet these basic responsibilities – even after support has been provided – the student may be required to take a leave from housing or from the College until they are ready to return to a communal living environment.

Room Assignments

New Students : Room assignments for new students are made by the Office of Housing and Residence Life based on the information provided in the housing application, including preferences and compatibility considerations. Assignments are made on a first-come, first-served basis
