The University of Mary Washington believes that living on campus is an integral part of a student’s complete educational experience; therefore, all full-time students who are admitted as residential students in their first year are required to live on campus for two full academic years. Transfer students admitted in the fall as residential students are required to live on campus for two semesters, and transfer students admitted in the spring as residential students are required to live on campus for one semester.

The UMW Libraries constitute the knowledge center of the university - a physical and virtual manifestation of the institution’s mission of connected and engaged teaching, learning, research, and service. Specifically, the Libraries are:

• spaces where people collaborate, gather, research, and share
• technology- and human-enabled engines, showcases, and catalysts of innovation

Located in on the first floor of the HCC in room 112, the IT Help Desk provides centralized technology support to faculty, staff and students. Services include assistance with password resets, connections to UMW systems, repair of computers and AV systems in labs and classrooms, and troubleshooting hardware issues.  Phone and walk-up service is available during our operating hours.

The Student Health Center (SHC) is a weekday health clinic for UMW students. Our care focuses on routine and acute health care needs of our student population.  This would include initial diagnosis and treatment of acute illnesses and/or injuries with appropriate follow up for most short-term illnesses.
