St. Olaf's ten residential halls include: Ellingson Hall, Hilleboe-Kittlesby Halls, Hoyme Hall, Kildahl Hall, Larson Hall, Melby Hall, Mohn Hall, Rand Hall, Thorson Hall, and Ytterboe Hall.
Upperclassmen can also choose to live in one of 18 honors houses, which are focused around projects (i.e., St. Paul Outreach, GREENhouse, St. Olaf Disability Awareness House) or special academic interests (including Diversity Awareness, Telecom, and language houses such as German, French, Asian languages, Norwegian, and Russian).
Students are required to live on-campus, as space permits.
