Living at Dana Hall

Dana Hall dorms are not just four walls and a place to store your stuff – they serve as your home base within a caring community. There, you’ll learn to live with others, start lifelong friendships, gain important skills, and ready yourself for living on your own in college and beyond.

Always someone by your side

I love Community Weekends! Because we have to be on campus, there's always someone around to walk into Wellesley with, or watch a movie with - it's a great bonding experience. I have really benefited from boarding; it's been the experience of a lifetime.

Learning beyond the classroom

As a boarder, I learn from teachers much more than their subject matter. I had never really thought of teachers as a support system until I came to Dana. Living on campus, you see some of your teachers all the time, and at first I caught myself saying "Wow! They have lives outside of school?" Soon, that became a lost thought.
