Wilson Hall

Wilson Hall is a coed campus living community for first-years and sophomores that offers easy access to everything on campus.

Wilson is a coed, traditional-style residence hall for primarily first-years and sophomores. It is centrally located on Flagstaff's campus and offers a quieter living experience. Just steps from classes, dining options, and a nearby bus stop makes for quick trips anywhere on campus.

Outside, students hang out on the covered porches or join a game on the sand volleyball and basketball courts in the Central Quad. It's a laid back living community where you can focus on your studies, enjoy campus life, and forge new connections.

Built in 1965 and originally known as Dorm H, Wilson Hall was renamed in 1968 to honor Charles B. Wilson, a Flagstaff attorney who helped NAU transition into a four-year university and supported its bid to offer liberal arts and science degrees. Today, Wilson continues to celebrate its legacy each spring with the Wilson Wiffle Ball Tournament, a spirited tradition that raises funds for the Jennifer Wilson scholarship.
