Working list: Tallest student housing towers by university

Listed below are the tallest student housing towers by university across the United States. This list includes on-campus housing and dormitories for students, as well as off-campus privately operated rental housing for students. It does not include strictly condominium buildings.

As can be seen from the data, there have been two great boom period for constructing tall student housing towers. The first in the 1960s and early 1970s (46 from the list) were principally on-campus dormitories those the baby boom generation. The second, was in the 2005-2020 (24 from the list) time period as private firms constructed and offered varied high-rise off-campus living for students. This second boom period appears to be continuing well into the 2020s with nine more towers completed or underway.

As more such towers are identified, they will be added to the list if they are the tallest for a particular university. Please note, in cases where the exact height is not known , “~” is used to show the height is an estimate based on the number of floors times 10 feet per floor.

Peace!
