Living on campus provides students with quick access to academic support as well as the ability to participate in campus activities, events, and residence hall programming. Case University's on-campus accommodation consists of 12 freshmen buildings, eight second-year buildings, nine upper-class buildings, and 18 Greek Life Houses.

Once this condition has been satisfied, students may choose to live off-campus.
