Whilst living at the College, residents are strongly encouraged to adhere to the bounds of social tolerance and friendly interaction to ensure the smooth running of the JFC community.

The college accommodates full-time undergraduate and graduate students in fully furnished single rooms arranged in groups (called "decks") of 12 or less sharing a lounge area, kitchenette and bathroom facilities.

The residential decks provide an intimate social and intellectual community atmosphere, which allows students to quickly come to know one another as colleagues, roommates and friends. Both women and men live on all decks.

There are also opportunities for casual or short-term residence for visitors to the University.

In each room:

• Bed
