Housing Tours

See yourself in your LSU home

If you’re on campus, drop by the Housing Tour Center on the corner of Highland Road and Veterans Drive to see an example residence hall room, chat with a housing ambassador, and see other room styles through interactive, virtual tours Monday through Friday 9:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m., excluding university holidays and move-in week.

Select residence halls are shown on daily campus tours. Housing Tours are also featured as part of the Bengal Bound Orientation agenda for all first-year students.

Summer Housing Tours

Summer Housing Tours are offered June 8 – July 31, 2026, Monday through Friday at 12:00 p.m., excluding university holidays, Bengal Bound Orientation dates, and special events. 

Summer Housing Tours are designed for incoming first year students to view a room in their assigned residence hall or apartment community. While students cannot view their exact room, they are able to view one that is most similar in style to what they’ll call home in August.

Please plan for a 45-60 minute walking tour, beginning at the Housing Tour Center on the corner of Highland Road and Veterans Drive in front of the LSU Barnes & Noble.

Find your building on the schedule below and register for a housing tour on a day that building is featured. Please note that Herget Hall will be closed this summer due to renovations in the first floor community area.
