Our residences
Mount Royal Residence is intended for single students in any number of classes.
We have two residence complexes - West Residence and East Residence - designed for independent student living. Combined, they accommodate about 1,000 students.
Our residences are available in either apartment or townhouses units - no cramped dorms here! All residents have private, lockable bedrooms and share living rooms and kitchens with their unit mates.
Both East and West Residences are only a few minutes' walk away from a wide range of Mount Royal facilities and services - all tailored to students' needs - including outstanding fitness facilities, the brand-new Library, academic support, a doctor's office and more!
West Residence provides one-, two- and four-bedroom apartments and four bedroom townhouses.
East Residence is comprised of one-, two-, and four bedroom townhouses arranged into triads.
