Need help identifying colleges with most students living on campus

Hey guys, does anyone know which university in the U.S. boasts the highest number of students living on campus? This is important for me as I'm looking for a rich campus and residential life. Thanks!

When it comes to a rich campus and residential life, the number of students living on-campus is definitely key. Some universities are indeed well-known for having a significant percentage of their student body residing on campus.

Bowdoin College in Maine, for example, requires students to live on campus for the first two years (except for a few special cases), but many students choose to live on for all four. This, along with their robust residential life programs, fosters a tight-knit community atmosphere.

The University of Notre Dame is another institution where nearly all undergraduates live on campus for four years. In fact, they have a unique residential system based on communities, rather than just accommodations.

Similarly, Washington University in St. Louis is known for its requirement that first-year students live on the South 40, a residential area that includes housing, dining facilities, and various student services. The construct has been likened to a college "town" of its own within the university.

These are only a few examples, and it's important to remember that a school's size can impact the percentage of students living on campus. In a smaller liberal arts college, it might be much easier to have a high percentage of students living on campus than at a large public university. Therefore, you may want to examine both aspects – the size of the institution and the percentage of students residing on campus.

But ultimately, the richness of campus life does not solely depend on how many students live on campus. Other factors, such as the variety and quality of on-campus activities, the options for student involvement in clubs and organizations, and the school's sense of community, also play a significant role.
