Residence Life and Housing

Welcome to the SUNY Cortland Residence Life and Housing webpage.  I trust you find it helpful and welcome any feedback about your experience navigating through the information that is included.

On behalf of all of the staff I extend an invitation to live, learn, and grow with us.  The residence halls are a very unique place.  There will not be many other times where you will live with hundreds of different folks, most of which you will meet for the first time, and be expected to respect each person as well as contribute to an atmosphere of civility.  You will quickly find that what once may have been unfamiliar or invite trepidation, will become a profound enhancement to your SUNY Cortland experience.

I am proud to represent a professional and conscientious staff dedicated to providing you the best experience you can receive.  Whether it is a contact with a central office staff member, or the first time you meet your Resident Assistant, the Administrative Assistant, Academic Peer Mentor, or professional Complex Coordinator or Residence Hall Director, it will be evident that every one of us is excited to welcome you to your home away from home. 

I invite you to visit our frequently asked questions link here to begin your navigation journey.  Remember that as much information as you can find here electronically, nothing will replace the person to person contact you will experience with our staff and college community.   

I wish you well in all of your endeavors,

Ralph Carrasquillo
Director of Residence Life and Housing
