Our student residence, Donahue House, is a three-story building located on the Burin Campus grounds and is connected to the College of the North Atlantic.

Bedrooms

Twenty-five rooms have been newly refurbished with a single bed, stationary desk and chair, bookshelves, armoire, updated closet/storage space, and a leather couch or two leather chairs.

Bedrooms for Mobility-Impaired Students

There are several rooms in Donahue House that are equipped to meet the needs of mobility-impaired students. These rooms are located on the first floor and are available to male and female students. Students interested in these accommodations should specify such on their application form and are encouraged to visit the College to determine if the accommodations are suitable to their needs.

Bedding

Students are responsible for providing their own bed linens, towels, and laundry services.

Common areas are shared spaces amongst all students living on-campus. Here you will have the opportunity to meet other students and make new friends.

Computer Room

The computer room is located on the first floor(F1) and contains two computer terminals, and a printer. Residents must use their student ID and password to access the computers.

T.V. Room

The T.V. room is located on the first floor (F1) and is available to all residents and their guests. This room is equipped with a colour cable television.

Kitchen

The kitchen is located on the first floor (F1) and is equipped with refrigerators, ranges, freezers, and microwave. Cooking utensils are not provided.

Games Room

The games room is located on the first floor (F22) and is available to all residents and their guests. The College also has a gymnasium and weight room which are available to students at scheduled times. As well, there is a Student Lounge which students can use during the school day.

Laundry Room

The laundry room is located on the first floor (F4) and is equipped with two washers and two dryers.

Quiet Floors

In addition to regular study and quiet hours, all floors of the residence may be designated quiet for extended periods of time. The objective of the quiet floors is to provide an atmosphere which encourages academic achievement to students who are very serious about their studies. Although it is not possible to describe exactly the degree of “quietness” expected from residents on each floor, examples of unacceptable behavior include the following:

• The use of stereo equipment
• TVs and radios at a volume that can be heard outside the room.
• Room doors being left open while there is a noise being made in the room.
• Congregating in common areas.
• Any noise that interrupts other students studying.

Burin campus offers a variety of different services for students living on-campus. Please see the services below for more information.
