New College offers three different room options for residents; single rooms, traditional double rooms and single rooms as well as our new bed-over-desk double rooms. All rooms are fully furnished (bed, desk, set of drawers, closet, chair and drapes), with large windows; they are air-conditioned and there are heating controls in each room.
All rooms are equipped with a telephone, and complimentary local telephone service is provided to all residents. The telephone service also allows a fast and convenient link to the Wilson Lodge for security purposes. Rooms are wired for cable TV; however, it is the responsibility of each resident to subscribe to this service, if desired. There is also a ResNet connection for each resident which allows complimentary access to the University’s computing network and, through the University network, to the Internet.
Room Types
Single Rooms – House an individual student in a room with their own single bed, desk, desk chair and closet.
Double Rooms – Traditional university residence double rooms, housing two students in a spacious room. Each student in the room has their own desk, desk chair, single bed and closet. There is only one phone and phone line in a double room, but each student is assigned their own private voicemail.
Bed-over-desk Double Rooms – These double rooms maximize space in a smaller double room by placing hte bed over the desk, making the best use of space and creating unique individual study spaces. The bed-over-desk is set-up like a traditional bunk bed, except the lower bunk is removed and a desk is placed in this space. Each student in a bed-over-desk double is provided with their own closet, bed, desk and desk chair. These rooms are only located in Wilson Hall.
