residential campus

Live-in school setting

A residential campus is a college or university where students live on-site in dormitories or housing provided by the institution, as opposed to commuting from off-campus homes.

The term emphasizes the full immersion of campus life—dining halls, dormitories, and social spaces all within walking distance: She wanted the residential campus experience rather than living at home.
