Residential Life 

Itasca's housing facilities are designed for comfortable, convenient student living and are funded through special grants to the ICC Engineering Program. Engineering students will be given priority until May, after which spaces will be filled on a first come, first served basis by new or current ICC students.

Itasca Hall

This facility opened in the fall of 2005 and houses 75 students. Eleven units accommodate six students each, while the remaining three units accommodate three students. There are triple, double and single room options in the suites. All suites are equipped with a kitchen area, bathroom and bedroom space with a regular twin-size bed, desk and wardrobe for each student as well as Internet, cable and local phone services. Students need a calling card for long distance calls. The first floor of Itasca Hall is a commons/lobby area with public restrooms, student mailboxes and easy access to the Department of Residential Living Office. The laundry room is located on the third floor for student use. Main meals are prepared for residents by the campus food service and served at the college dining center; The Viking Grill & Eatery.

Wenger Hall

The third floor of the Engineering Center houses 33 students: 11 residence hall rooms with three students to a room. Rooms are completely furnished with study desk, chair, regular twin-size bed and wardrobe for each student. Each room has its own private bath.

Because the housing is directly above the classroom studios, students have access to computers and study space 24 hours a day. In addition, individual rooms and exterior building entrances are secured 24 hours a day, seven days a week.  

A commons/kitchenette area equipped with a stove, refrigerator, sink and microwave is also on the third floor. This space is intended as an area for residents to prepare light meals and snacks, gather for activities, conduct meetings and socialize. Main meals are prepared for residents by the campus food service and served at the college cafeteria.

Housing and Meal Plan Costs

Students who live in Itasca Hall or Wenger Hall are required to carry a meal plan. Costs per semester for the 2010/2011 school year for housing and meals are as follows:

Note: The cafeteria serves breakfast and lunch Monday - Friday, meals are not served on weekends. On-campus students will be required have a default meal plan of $580 each semester into a meal account. The student's meal cost will be subtracted from this account each time they purchase food in the cafeteria. At the end of each semester all meal-plan money on the student's account will be lost if not used by the student. 

*There is a second meal plan option of $650 per semester, this can be chosen on the Housing/Meal Contract

Students are required to send in a $200 pre-payment to secure a room. All applicants are asked to complete a room assignment preference form. This information is used to place students with other residents with similar interests.
