Does the institution offer housing options to accomodate the special needs of transgender and transitioning students (either as a matter of policy or as standard practice)?:
Yes

A brief description of the program, policy, or practice:

We offer gender neutral housing options to the students on campus in two ways: single bathrooms with private attached bathrooms and apartments that are not assigned with the male/female gender.

There are a total of seven single bedrooms with private bathrooms. We also have an accessible and private bathroom in one of our residence halls, Fitzgerald Hall, that we can provide to residents on an assignment basis.

There are a total of four apartments that are designated and advertised as "co-ed". Each apartment has four single bedrooms with shared living room, dining room, and kitchen space. The bathrooms are private and lockable.

New students can preference this housing option on their Housing Preference Form and continuing students can select a room during the room selection process.
