University Housing
Southeastern’s residential community is home to over 2,700 students. Residents live only a short walk or Lion Traxx ride to classroom buildings, the library, computer labs, dining locations, and the Student Union. A section of some residence halls is designated for special interest housing communities, including students involved with Living Learning Communities, sororities, and fraternities.
University housing at Southeastern is convenient, comfortable and a great way to meet other Southeastern students and get involved on campus. Our 12 residence halls, apartments and Greek houses offer more than a place to sleep or study—they offer community, connections to Southeastern and Hammond, and a caring environment.
You’ll meet students from all over the world, many with vastly differing backgrounds, but often with similar goals: to succeed academically, to discover their on campus community, and to learn more about themselves and others.

Dining
Live Well. Eat Well.
Our meal plans are flexible so you can get the most out of them. With the exception of the Commuter 300 Plan, there are two parts to each meal plan. The Meal Allowance enables you to choose how many all-you-care-to-eat meals you want included in your plan (these meals are consumed at the Mane Dish). Cub Cash is declining balance dollars and supplements the weekly meal allowance to be used at all campus food service locations.
Once you have your meal plan, your student ID works like a debit card. Just swipe your card, and the meal charge is deducted from your account.
Leftover Cub Cash?
If you have a resident plan, your Cub Cash balance rolls over from fall to spring semester. However, any unused balance at the end of the spring semester will expire. With a commuter plan, Cub Cash will roll over until used. However, if your voluntary or commuter plan is left dormant for over one year, it will expire.
Sign up for your meal plan during registration or visit the Dining Services office located on the first floor of the Student Union.
