Undergraduate Viewbook - Framingham State University

living on campus
Move-In Condition
For the true “college experience,” there’s no substitute for living on campus.
You’ll meet friends right away, get plugged into what’s going on, and you
can walk to class and not have to deal with traffic.
Framingham State has seven residence halls and all the rooms have
Internet and cable TV access. Many of the halls feature a “quiet floor”
for studying, a lounge where you can hang out with friends, kitchens and
laundry facilities.
For more information and to check out photos of what the halls look like on the
inside, visit www.framingham.edu/campus-life
Food for Thought
When it comes to on-campus dining, it’s all about variety. The McCarthy
Center has the Dining Commons, the Marketplace and the Cyber Café,
which offer countless choices for breakfast, lunch, dinner and even
late-night snacks. The Athletic Center has a Juice Bar. The Library is
where you’ll find the Whittemore Smart Market, where you can grab
snacks and drinks. And the new North Hall has Sandella’s, a popular
spot for grabbing grilled flatbreads, sandwiches, paninis, quesadillas,
and salads.
Framingham State offers several flexible meal plans to fit your specific
schedule, whether you plan to live on campus or commute. And if
you open a Ram Cash account, you can use your FSU Card (student ID)
like a debit card at any of our on-campus dining facilities, the bookstore,
laundry centers and select vending machines, as well as at off-campus
restaurants and stores such as CVS, Chipotle, Domino’s, Subway and
Dairy Queen.
