Undergraduate Residences Living on campus presents an affordable opportunity for undergraduate students to experience a diverse community and make lifelong friends while being conveniently situated at the centre of social, cultural and academic life, with a wide array of campus services at their doorstep. York has approximately 2,280 beds available for undergraduate students across eight buildings on the Keele campus, and an additional 400 on the Glendon campus. Most residences are arranged in a traditional style with comfortably furnished double and single rooms, and shared common lounges and washrooms. With most rooms, students will purchase a mandatory meal plan that can be used at over 35 food outlets offering a wide selection of food types on the Keele campus and a main dining hall and fast food outlet at the Glendon campus. York's Keele campus also has some space available in suite-style units where groups of four to six students share a small kitchen, living area and in-suite washroom. The Pond Road Residence is York's Keele campus newest undergraduate residence and offers 428 spaces arranged in 2 bedroom suites, each with a separate washroom and kitchen. Residence costs will vary according to accommodation styles; however, students should estimate $7,000 for a typical arrangement of a double occupancy room with a meal plan. Undergraduate students are welcome to apply for residence as long as they enrol in and plan to remain in a minimum of 24 credits or four full courses.
