There are four residence halls – Allegheny Hall, Brandywine Hall, Commonwealth Hall, and University Hall and two garden-style apartment communities, The Village and East Village. Together, the six communities house more than 3000 students.
Home to 3,000+ Residents
USH, University Student Housing, oversees the daily management which includes helping students sign up for housing, assigning rooms, distributing packages, and handling any maintenance issues.
Here to help
When you live in a USH community, you’ll sign a lease agreement and be billed directly by USH, not through your WCU RamPortal.
The Residence Life staff in each community is there to support you with anything student-related, like community events, roommate concerns or getting involved. They’re hired and managed by West Chester University. All USH communities are regularly patrolled and monitored by WCU Public Safety to help keep everyone safe.
Our Mission

University Student Housing supports the goals of West Chester University by developing and operating exemplary living and learning communities for the individual and educational enrichment of students.
