The Office of Housing and Residential Education at Emerson College oversees all things related to living on the Boston campus. We are here to help you with any aspect of your residential experience, whether it is answering questions about housing, helping you move in, or making friends, we look forward to being a part of your experience!

The Iwasaki Library is your gateway to authoritative information on any subject. We can connect you with readings and reserve items for courses, book and movie recommendations for leisure hours, and research tools for passion projects and current events. In addition, we can help you access cultural resources in Boston like the Boston Public Library and MFA. You can ask us anything: we love questions, in-person and remotely. Wherever you are, the Library is here for you.

Off-Campus Student Services (OCSS) is a resource for the entire Emerson community—all current or future undergraduate and graduate students, staff, and faculty. Commuter students at Emerson College live off-campus in an apartment or at home. Our commuter student programs and services are designed for you no matter where you live. OCSS is here to help with all aspects of off-campus living including getting involved with campus life, finding roommates, signing a lease, even learning how to cook!

The Social Justice Center works with and supports individuals and communities through personal and systems advocacy, community-centered projects, and radical care. We believe in individual and community self-determination and work in support of the agency of students, faculty, and staff, especially those from marginalized groups. We engage in an ongoing practice of praxis—reflection and action—and work to deepen our own liberatory practices and to create liberatory spaces for others.
