Otis College of Art and Design

Student success is not just measured by student talent and ambition, but also by the support and resources a college campus provides. Our student support services at Otis College are positioned across our campus offering a myriad of programs and services focused on student retention and success.

The Residence Hall is primarily for first year students. The Residence Hall offers students the opportunity to live with peers and fully immerse themselves in a community of artists and designers. With multiple lounge spaces, students have the ability to engage with a diverse population and meet people they may otherwise never met.

The affiliated Park West Apartments are conveniently located across the street from campus. Sophomore, Junior, Senior, and Graduate students are able to live with other Otis College students in an apartment setting.

We are incredibly excited to introduce Ascent! Ascent is a brand new construction with all single bedrooms, two miles from campus.
