Step Three: Making Marietta College Home

Residential Students:

Living on campus can be one of the most rewarding aspects of the college experience. As a residential community, we develop our distinctive ethos, our dedication to the whole student and affirm the independence between life inside and outside of the classroom.

Log into the Residence website to fill out your application for housing (available April 1). You will have to wait 24 hours after your MyMarietta account is created before accessing the Residence Portal. The Office of Community Living uses the information that you provide to make housing assignments and to identify a potential roommate(s) for the 2023-2024 academic year.
