Campus Living
Why have just one campus when you can choose from three?
Most students will find themselves studying at the main Windsor campus or the nearby Downtown campus. The main campus is modern and full of student amenities, including the SportsPlex Fitness Centre, which features a 1,500-seat soccer and football stadium, a women’s softball diamond, a four-court tennis centre, sand volleyball complex, and more.
Outside of Windsor, St. Clair’s Chatham campus is located in nearby Chatham-Kent, which offers its own intimate, student-friendly community. This campus also has its own fitness and sports facility: the HealthPlex.
Both Windsor and Chatham campuses offer on-campus residence living (although space is limited and in-demand, so apply early). Students will live in either two- or four-bedroom furnished suites which include a kitchenette, laundry facilities, and common lounge areas.
Did You Know: The charming GEM residence is reserved specifically for international students during their first semester enrolled in certain programs! Built directly into your tuition fees, the GEM residence experience helps you adjust to life in Windsor and affords you extra time to find off-campus housing.
