Hear it from those that know best!
First-year students majoring in the College of Humanities & Social Sciences can live in North Hall and take classes with the same group of peers, creating a smaller network within the larger LSU campus from day one.
In this living-learning environment, the academic support is unmatched. Many of your HSS classes will be held in the residence hall, with additional tutoring and on-campus events designed to help you succeed at LSU and beyond!
As part of the Residential College One Complex (RCC), North Hall surrounds a beautifully landscaped central courtyard with West Hall, South Hall, and East Hall, which houses the faculty-in-residence apartment. North Hall is on the west side of campus near the athletic facilities and The 5 dining hall.
