University of Fort Hare (UFH) Residence

Residence Life

Living on campus places you at the centre of the University community, ready for both academic and co-curricular activities.  This enables you to be part of a vital living and Learning Community and will enable you to make friendships that will last for years.  Informal education in the enrichment of personality, pursuit of opportunities for companionship with people, and democratic community living, are essential aspects of total university experience. Residences, as educational laboratories, are places for teaching responsible citizenship and for developing personal and social values. The staff are committed to helping students fulfill diverse needs and in the process development, responsibility, and accountability are promoted.

There are 33 residence halls in Alice, some of which are clusters.  While each residence is unique, each supports excellence.  Staff and student leaders live and work in each area, co-coordinating services and programmes that produces contented individuals.  The office of the Residence Manager is located in the administration building.
