On-Campus Housing for LGBTQ+ Students

Santa Clara University and the Offices of Housing & Residence Life are committed to providing comfortable, welcoming, and safe housing options for all students. We are pleased to offer various types of on-campus accommodations, which meet the needs of a thriving and diverse population, including members of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, Questioning, Intersex, Pansexual, Asexual, and Ally (LGBTQQIPAA) community.

Beginning Fall 2025, Santa Clara University will offer gender inclusive housing. More information will be shared at a later date, but we are happy to confirm that the GIH option will be housed in the Unity RLC (McLaughlin-Walsh and Nobili Hall).

Please contact our central housing email at housing@scu.edu or call the Housing Office at 408.554.4900 if you have specific questions regarding your housing accommodation for the current or following year.

 We would like to encourage you to visit the Rainbow Resource Center website, which offers multiple resources, as you make your transition to campus life.
