Housing & Residence Life : The Residence Halls

Pinney

Pinney Hall will be closed for the 2024 - 2025 academic year for scheduled renovation, including the removal of the balconies.  

 

Pinney Hall was built at the turn of the century, and is named in honor of A. Searle Pinney, former chair of the CSU Board of Trustees and local attorney.  Pinney apartments are spacious, designed for 5 students and offering lovely views of the local area from apartments and two-story lounges scattered throughout the building.  Laundry services are available on every floor, and Pinney houses the Westside Colonial Fitness Center.

 

Requirements:

Pinney Hall is open to students who will be 21 years of age by the start of the semester, or who have earned at least 57 credits.

Pinney Hall requires that all students be on the Blue meal plan, but Pinney students may opt to upgrade to any of the other meal plans (Platinum, Ultimate, or Diamond.)  More information on meal plans can be found on the Housing Costs page or the Sodexo Campus Dining page.
