Overview of Village

Santa Cruz Village (SCV) opened in fall 2007 and is home to approximately 460 second-year students, as well as some upper-division students. Santa Cruz offers mostly two-bedroom, one-bathroom, furnished semi-suites generally shared by four students. Some suites may include triple occupancy bedrooms and be shared by five or six students. Each suite also includes a microwave and one or two mini-fridges. The suites include one bathroom and a separate vanity area. Each resident has an extra-long twin bed and mattress, three drawers, desk, bookshelf, chair, and lockable file cabinet.

Santa Cruz has excellent activity and co-curricular space such as a game room, an exercise room, ballet and art studios, sound resistant music practice rooms, and study, television, and computer lounges. Each student room has cable TV and wireless internet access.
