The Tec Residence Halls provide the best place for making friends, since they offer numerous events, in which you can help as an organizer or participant. In addition, the availability of a wide range of sports, art, student group and counselling activities, which form part of the Student Leadership and Development model (LiFE), will promote your wellbeing and foster your integration.

Community Life
Participate in activities organized by each campus every semester, such as:
- Student welcome event every semester.

- Events during final exams.
- End-of-semester event.
Academic Level
For more than 15 consecutive years, residents have obtained a higher grade average compared with non-local students who do not live in the student housing and with local students who live in the city with family members.
As a resident, you will have the chance to ask tutors for academic support, through academic counseling in the subjects you find difficult, and/or support from expert advisors who will supervise your adaptation to and integration into Tecnológico de Monterrey and the student community.
Develop your skills
By living in the Tec Residence Halls, you will put into practice skills and values such as social harmony, tolerance, respect and resilience, and learn to be more sociable and sensitive to others’ needs.
Actions such as preparing your meals, washing dishes, making your bed, ironing your clothes, among others, will be useful throughout your personal life.
