Where are the summer residencies held, and what do they cost?
On the University of Alaska Anchorage campus. (Anchorage has a population of approximately 280,000.) UAA provides an inspirational setting for the summer residencies. Housing is in student residency halls and catering/food services are provided on-site at the Creekside Eatery. The campus is surrounded by wooded areas, a creek, and protected wetlands. Students have the opportunity to observe Alaska wildlife on campus and in nearby state parks, sometimes in an unexpected and unnervingly close way, including moose, bears, ducks, geese, bald eagles, and beavers. Our Consortium Library and medical facilities are within walking distance. Other amenities a few steps away from the residency halls include: the Bear Necessities convenience store, Power House Fitness Center , computer lab, and a lounge area with fireplace. Bike paths and hiking trails into the nearby Chugach State Park are easily accessible from campus. Students will be housed in non-smoking, private rooms in UAA’s residency hall
