Welcome home!
Living on campus is one of the most important (and fun!) aspects of your time at Knox. So, let’s get you ready to move in!
Before June 1, log into your Pre-Arrival Tracker to submit your housing agreement form.
First, read the information included here so you know what to expect.
Residence Halls and Living Learning Communities
Students are expected to live on campus the entire time they are enrolled at Knox. The College is committed to residential living and residential learning as important parts of a student's education.
One of the decisions you’ll need to make is whether or not you are interested in living in a Living Learning Community (LLC).
LLCs are specialized residential programs where students with shared academic interests, career goals, or identities live together.
- Seamlessly integrate academic and social experiences.
- Live with peers who share similar interests.
- Build lasting relationships with faculty mentors.
- Attend specialized workshops and events.
- Gain the advantage of having suitemates in some of the same classes.
- Enhance your connections contributing to your personal and academic growth.
Please indicate on your housing agreement form in the Pre-Arrival tracker if you are interested in an LLC. Regardless of your choice, your campus home will include:
- NEW furniture! Our first-year residence halls have been modernized with new amenities to make your living space even better.
- A Residence Assistant (RA) is an upper-class student who helps guide you through your year, provides programming, and serves as a contact for any questions or concerns.
I was a scared, confused freshman, and my RA was really cool. It made me want to be a leader and do that for younger students. I wanted the opportunity to guide students through college like that, to tell them who to connect with, and to help them through their first year. - Jed from Oregon, IL

Roommate Assignments
Most students will be matched with a roommate based on their roommate questionnaire answers, which you fill out in your housing agreement form in the Pre-Arrival tracker.
Students who have a roommate already determined need to indicate their name when completing their housing preferences form. Both roommates must indicate they want to live together for this choice to be validated.
