Stratford Heights

Exterior of Stratford Heights residential complex. There are several Tudor style buildings surrounded by green space and trees.

Stratford Heights is a series of Tudor-style buildings that come together to create a diverse neighborhood community. The cozy and charming ambiance helps students to feel at home and comfortable, especially if UC is a new environment for them. Just across the street from campus, Stratford Heights has a strong sense of community and motivation amongst its residents. In addition to the suite style rooms and common areas, this community surrounds the Stratford Clubhouse, a wonderful place to study, hangout or get away. 

Stratford Heights is home to Audre Lorde Social Justice House, 1MPACT House, and several Greek organizations.
