The best way to experience the vibrant Mills community is to live right on campus. Because our students represent a wide range of ethnicities, backgrounds, ages, and interests, living together and drawing from that breadth of experience becomes part of the learning process. Of course, it’s also a great way to make lifelong friends.

Traditional-aged first-year students will be part of a Living Learning Community (LLC) organized around a theme of interest to its members. Themes are grouped within two broad options: Students in Academic Fusion communities live in Warren Olney Hall and share activities that relate to academics; those within Scholars in Action LLCs live in Orchard Meadow Hall, sharing a theme that falls outside of their academic studies.

Whether you enjoy one of our historic Mediterranean-inspired halls or our newest Craftsman-style apartments, you'll be inspired by the lush, park-like campus that welcomes you home.
