As a residential liberal arts college, Seaver College aspires to have 75% of undergraduates living in the on-campus community. The new Seaside Residence Hall opened in August 2018 has made this goal attainable. Prior to its opening, campus housing could only accommodate 60% of Seaver students.

Last year an additional 390 students also lived in community while participating in Pepperdine International Programs. When these students are added with the Malibu residential students, 64.5% of Seaver undergraduates benefited from living in the Pepperdine community.
