The University of Scranton's recurring student events include Spring Fling, Senior Formal, and the President's Ball. They offer different kinds of gathering points during the academic year rather than a single event defining campus life.
Spring Fling is a student-focused seasonal celebration, while Senior Formal is directed toward students approaching graduation. The President's Ball is a larger social occasion. Scranton also has service-centered holiday programming, including Christmas on Campus. Event formats and eligibility can change, so a current campus calendar is the best guide to dates, tickets, and participation.
The University of Scranton offers college-operated undergraduate housing, including coed residential options. Reported figures place about 59% of students on campus; the remainder includes commuters and students living elsewhere. Housing availability should not be confused with a guarantee of a preferred building or room type.
Students should review residence-hall and apartment-style options by year of study, along with application and assignment procedures. Dining choices and meal-plan rules can differ for residents and commuters. Reported first-year parking rules do not permit freshmen to register or park a car on campus, an important consideration for students planning regular trips home or off-campus work. Anyone seeking an exception should check the current parking policy before relying on a car.
