Gender Inclusive Housing
The gender-inclusive housing hall provides a physically and emotionally safe space for the LGBTQ+ population at EMU. This includes all those exploring gender transition, those living into non-binaried genders, and those who embrace the non-cis-hetero-normative identities that some in our student body carry. Gender inclusive housing allows for students to live together regardless of gender assigned at birth in an environment that is explicitly affirming of their dignity and belonging on our campus. This community will provide a supportive space for students to explore and learn about their own identity, while also building lasting relationships with others.
Anyone 18 and over may apply as long as they are explicitly comfortable living with people of ALL genders. This space is not intended as shared living for romantic couples, and living in the same space on any hall on campus with a significant other is strongly discouraged.

Northlawn Pre-professional Floor
Northlawn 4th floor is aimed at Senior students (7th & 8th semesters) who are foremost looking for a community with similar academic interests.
The intention is to offer students a place to live which accodates a more professionally compatible schedule and energy, for example students who are anticipating or currently participating in:
- teaching placements
- nursing clinicals
- internships
Although the target audience is Senior students who are working on their last requirements before graduation, other students not in placements can also apply, citing a need and desire for a focused academic living community. Northlawn 4th floor is for all genders.
