Residence Life

Living at Muir is never dull! In fact, we think you'll find it to be a unique experience. As you live through your individual experience here at UC San Diego, we hope that we can be a safe and supportive environment for you (and become more than just a place to sleep and eat!). We are here not only to support your university efforts, but to assist your growth outside of the classroom in a variety of ways.

You'll notice that we refer to our living areas as residence halls, not dorms. We hope that you will eventually drop "dorm" from your vocabulary as we believe our residence halls and apartments provide a more engaging, fun, and supportive environment than a dorm may traditionally imply. 

The Residential Life staff works with students who live in the college’s residence halls and apartments to create a safe, welcoming living and learning community. They partner with Muir’s resident House Advisors, also traditionally known as Resident Advisors (RAs), to engage all resident students in the life of the college and present fun and informative programs throughout the year.
