Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

The overall comfort, hygiene, and accessibility of Williams dorms have always been excellent. There is a large variety of housing choices, and every building is different and unique.

The housing lottery may seem frustrating, but it’s fair with a guarantee of better housing as students get older. The rooms are generally good and always have beautiful views in the valley of mountains. The fact that most people graduate Williams without ever having a roommate speaks to how wonderful it is to live at Williams.

Campus Housing at Williams College

The Entry System Is a Phenomenal Invention.

Freshmen start in an 'entry' of 20 other freshmen of different backgrounds and headed by 2 Junior Advisors (JAs). This is your surrogate family at college. Upperclassman housing is split into 4 'neighborhoods' and your room gets better throughout your 4 years.
