I’d like my living space supersized, please!

The University of North Dakota for the first time this fall will open up apartment-style housing to freshman students.

It’s called University Place, and it’s a campus favorite. Built in 2007, the four-story U Place provides cozy living with double- or single-bedroom apartments — each with a furnished living room, full kitchen and belly-up brunch counter. (Lasagna, anyone? C’mon over!)

The brightly lit units have controlled access and are carpeted and air-conditioned. Residents also have access to study rooms and comfortable lounge spaces.

As a premium option, U Place does have a slightly higher rate than other residence halls, and first-year students making this choice still must choose one of the all-access meal plans. A brain is not nourished by cheesy noodles alone.
