Live Safely

Brescia Residence places an emphasis on safety and security. The Residence Team members are available 24 hours a day.

Take Advantage, Get Involved - Hundreds of resources within 2 minutes

Access to a computer lab, wireless lounge & dining area, library, professors, upper-year students, Student Services Centre with workshops, career resources, and connections to many Brescia/Western/London resources.  Residents are more likely to be involved in campus activities and interact more frequently with faculty, staff and other students.

To immerse yourself in all things Brescia, you’ll want to apply for residence. You’ll be living in the majestic, castle-like Ursuline Hall, along with about 170 women from all over Canada and the world. By living in residence, you’ll develop friendships that will last a lifetime.

Castle Café is located in residence as well so you won’t have far to go for meals or a snack. And your classes — and the library — will be right next door at Mother St. James Memorial Building.

Through Focused Interest Floors, you’ll get to know other women who share your passion for interests such as singing, dancing, and writing to languages, foods, and traditions. And you can develop your leadership skills by getting involved in Residence Council or by becoming one of our Residence Assistants.

You’ll experience such social programs as:

  • Floor dinners
  • Game nights
  • Movie nights
  • Service-learning trips
  • Trading lounges
