Augsburg's "Urban Village"
You'll find a friendly, 23-acre village in the midst of a major metropolitan area. Located in the heart of the Twin Cities, Augsburg is just a short walk from the biking and walking paths along the Mississippi River, and minutes from shopping, entertainment, museums, theaters, concert halls, the Target Center, and the Metrodome.
Advantages
But even more important are the many advantages Augsburg's small campus offers you as a First-Year college student. You'll make many new friends among roommates and classmates-some will become friends for a lifetime. You'll be just steps from Lindell Library, classrooms, Hoversten Chapel, the ice arena, fitness center, and Christensen Student Center. And, with slightly fewer than 1,000 students living on campus, you'll find faculty and staff greeting you by name.
At your assistance
Augsburg knows how important the Residence Life Experience is during your college years. In fact, studies show that students who live on campus are more likely to complete their degrees successfully. That's why there is Residence Life staff to help you get acquainted with life at Augsburg through social and educational events. They're ready to assist when you need help or just be there when you need a friend.
Opportunities
Living on the Augsburg campus offers many opportunities for learning, fun, and leadership. Students living in residence halls consistently earn higher grades and gain greater satisfaction during their college career. And, there are numerous planned events to welcome you and help you become part of the community-dances, movie nights, coffee houses, and weeks devoted to special issues discussions. You will be sharing interests, concerns, and ideas with other students-creating a lifetime of friendships, memories of good times and growth.
