University Residence Halls
Housing Options
The URH has various room configurations that offer opportunities for developing life-long friendships. Students may choose to stay in solo, twin-, or triple-sharing rooms at one of our five residential buildings:
- Cervini Hall
- Eliazo Hall
- International Residence Hall
- University Dormitory (North and South towers)
Faculty members and administrators may apply for a slot in our Single Faculty Housing*.
*Although single/unmarried faculty with no residential options within Metro Manila are prioritized in the allocation of these twin-sharing housing units, all faculty and administrators (single or married) who are interested in living conveniently on campus are eligible to apply for accommodation in the Single Faculty Housing, and may be accommodated on an as-available basis.
Cervini Hall, Eliazo Hall, and University Dormitory (North and South Towers)
Cervini and Eliazo Halls, built in 1964 and 1968, respectively, are currently designated as all-male dorms. They have been home to many generations of Ateneans who have gone on to great heights of personal and professional achievement, but continue to harbor many happy memories of their years spent in these residence halls.
