Residence Life
College is about new experiences. Learning new things. Meeting new people. Much of your time will be spent in the company of other people.
Sometimes, though, more than anything, you need privacy.
In Kettering’s Thompson Hall - conveniently located right in the middle of campus - you will always have a space of your own.
That’s because every student in the dorms gets a single room. Oh, and you get free parking, too.
2024 Move-in Dates
New Student Move-in for Thompson Hall will be Thursday, July 11, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Families and friends are welcome to assist new students with moving into their residence hall. Events and activities for families and friends end at 5:00 p.m.
Arrival and move-in dates for international students are earlier than for all-new student orientation. Please check your email for information regarding dates and details.
If you have any questions regarding international students and international orientation, please contact international@
