Housing
Winter 2024
McGill, North Tower, West Gate, East Village and the Coyote Den at East Village are now wait-list only. Please contact the McGill Residence front desk (phone 250-852-6330 or email mcgill@truresidence.ca ) to be placed on the wait list for West Gate Dormitories.
Our beautiful Kamloops campus offers a one-of-a-kind university community in the heart of the city, a place to live, work, learn and play.
Living on campus means being minutes away from your classes, enjoying easy access to campus and nearby city recreational facilities and belonging to an active community of students from across Canada and around the world. Do keep in mind that an application for campus housing is separate from an application to a TRU program.
