The Guide to Residence Life is designed to provide you with information about services, policies, procedures and opportunities that will enable you to fully participate in on-campus living.
On-campus living at University of Detroit Mercy provides an integral part of a student's educational experience, offering opportunities and services beneficial to your overall development.
We expect you, the resident, to be a responsible and involved citizen in the residential community and thus an active participant in making and carrying out decisions affecting you and your neighbors.
