Living
Suite and apartment-style communities support returning, transfer and graduate students.
Daily needs
North Market, fitness space, mail service, laundry and study rooms reduce trips across campus.
Connections
Frequent shuttle service, bicycle routes and a lighted walking path connect North Campus with academic buildings.
Built for students who have done this before
North Campus is suite and apartment-style housing for transfer, returning and graduate students who want a kitchen and a door that locks behind them rather than a traditional hall. Leases run academic-year or twelve-month.
Connected, not isolated
The Porter Loop shuttle runs to North Campus every twelve minutes during class hours, the Riverfront Trail is lit and plowed all winter, and North Market covers groceries, mail and a small dining counter so a resident does not have to cross campus for basics.
In and around Porter Falls
The campus is compact — 86 acres, 14 buildings — laid out along the old Millrace between downtown Porter Falls and the river. The Porter Loop shuttle circles it every twelve minutes during class hours, and the lighted Riverfront Trail connects the academic core to North Campus in about a ten-minute walk.
The practical details
Across the trail: 10-minute walk or one Porter Loop stop. Housing: Suites and apartments for transfer, returning and grad students. On site: North Market, fitness space, mail, laundry, study rooms. These specifics can shift from term to term, so confirm anything time-sensitive — a deadline, an appointment, an eligibility rule — before you count on it.
If you have a question
This is handled by Facilities & Campus Planning (Millwright Hall, Room 40). Call (715) 555-0245 or email facilities@uwporterfalls.edu during the fall and spring terms, or use MyPorter to send a message or book a time. If another office turns out to own the question, they will pass it along rather than send you back to the beginning.
Fictional information
UW–Porter Falls is a work of parody. Every office, person, building, phone number and statistic on this page is invented; nothing here describes a real institution or a service you can actually contact.
