Residence Life
At SVA, we strive to support our students both inside and outside the classroom. Students living on campus join a unique community of artists in a safe, diverse, and supportive living environment.
We offer students several housing options to fit all living preferences and budgets. Ludlow Residence is a traditional style residence hall that offers single and double room options. The 23rd Street Residence, 24th Street Residence, and Gramercy Women's Residence Halls offer students apartment-style living.

Fall 2021-Spring 2022 Academic Year
For the Fall 2021 - Spring 2022 academic year, SVA expects that the residence halls will resume shared and normal room occupancy, based on the anticipated wide-availability of the COVID-19 vaccine in advance of the start of the school year. Details on changes to other policies, including guest policy, mask policy, social distancing, etc, are expected to be determined and outlined by early summer and will be informed by guideline changes by New York State.
The Office of Residence Life will contact students, regarding the 21-22 Room Selection process during the last week of February. For questions, please email: reslife@sva.edu or check back at this page for updates.
