Residential Life at Eighth

Welcome to your new home at Eighth College

We look forward to welcoming you to your new home! Eighth's residential neighborhood is on the southernmost part of campus near the theatre district - across from the world famous La Jolla Playhouse and with views of the stunning La Jolla shoreline!

Building Our Community

At Eighth, we have five residential halls that have been carefully curated to reflect our mission and values. Our five residential buildings are Podemos, Sankofa, Pulse, Survivance, and Azad Hall.

The Residential Experience

Our Residential Life staff, composed of our wonderful Resident Assistants (RAs), Housing Assistant (HA), Program Assistant (PA), Assistant Directors (ADRLs), and Director (DRL), are committed to providing a healthy, fun, and educational living environment for all residents of Eighth College.
