Student Housing

Built in 2017, FVCC’s student housing in Founders Hall offers comfortable single and double bedroom units with full kitchens and bathrooms at competitive rental rates on campus. All units are equipped with secure entrances.

The living space also features coin-operated laundry facilities, private study and meeting areas, community spaces, and free parking. Safe walking paths allow residents easy access to the rest of campus, as well as to nearby stores and restaurants.

Room assignments are offered in order of application completion. All completed applications will be placed on a waitlist until guarantees/room assignments are made.

For applications to be considered complete and placed on the waitlist, the applicant must submit an application and pay the $300 application fee/security deposit to the FVCC Business Office. If we are unable to secure waitlisted applicants a spot or the application is canceled, this fee will be refunded. The application fee can be paid in three ways:

In Person

777 Grandview Dr. Kalispell, MT 59901

By Phone

Call Business Services at 406-756-3831 to pay the application fee over the phone.

Fall semester assignments are made at the end of July, Spring semester assignments at the start of January, and Summer assignments at the end of April. Room assignments are completed on a first-applied, first-assigned basis. Unless applicants specify their desired roommate, we will assign roommates based on responses to the personal preferences section of the application form. We typically do not pair roommates who are opposite sex or romantically involved. We are not able to accommodate children or families.
