Residence Life Handbook
The Residence Life Handbook provides guidelines and expectations for residential students in tandem with the Residence Life Room and Board Contract. Students living in the residential facilities are expected to be familiar with all policies and procedures in the Handbook. The Handbook is available on the Residence Life website.
Residence Hall Guests and Visitors
Generally, Illinois Tech residence halls welcome friends and family of residents. Visitors of all on campus residential communities are expected to present a valid government issued photo ID to the Community Desk Assistant upon entering the building. They must also be escorted by their resident host while in the building. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of public health guidance, Illinois Tech may limit guest access to its residence halls. More information is located in the Residence Life Handbook.
