High demand leads to additional housing options for students on the Richfield campus
March 19, 2024–Richfield, UT – Students attending the Snow College Richfield campus will now have another choice for on-campus housing. Following last year’s announcement of a 60-bed housing unit, the school has signed a contract that will provide housing for an additional 60 students.
Last spring, college officials worked to partner with a local property owner to establish a multi-year building lease, allowing the school to offer student housing on the Richfield campus for the first time. The lease began in August 2023 as students returned to campus for fall semester. Managed by the college to create a traditional residence life experience, including on-site resident assistants, the housing filled up in record time. Students were grateful for the opportunity to engage in campus life including activities, events, wellness resources, tutoring, fitness facilities, and advising services.
Due to the overwhelming success and increased demand for on-campus housing, school officials worked with the property owner to acquire the additional 60-bed unit. Located at 803 W 50 N, each apartment in the unit features a full kitchen. Students will pay $1,100 per semester for a shared room, $1,550 for a deluxe shared room, and $2,000 per semester for a private room.
Vice President of External Affairs Rob Nielson commented, “We are pleased about this new option for our Richfield students. Our campus there is seeing some exciting growth and we are thrilled to work with the local community to provide the services our students need.”
