At ECCC, we believe that while you’re busy preparing for life, you should take some time to live it.
HOUSING + DINING
Our on-campus housing options —each with its own personality—are the hub of life at ECCC and form the heart of campus. These eight halls are small communities where students live, study, bond, and interact with fellow Warriors. Housing applications open each year October 1 - be sure you've applied for admission prior to this date as housing fills quickly each year.

Two on-campus dining options - Mabry Cafe and The Grille - round out an engaging (and delicious!) student experience.
Students living on-campus enjoy a meal plan as part of their housing package. Commuter students are encouraged to purchase a commuter meal-plan using eligible aid, and all students and visitors may opt to pay-per-meal using cash or card.
