Grantham Hall

Looking for the residence hall in the midst of campus housing? Don’t miss Grantham Hall. It boasts comfortable rooms with laminate flooring and fully moveable furniture, which allows you to configure the space to your (and your roommate’s) liking. It also features modular beds you can adjust to eleven different heights—and even bunk or loft them.

Grantham is coed and features lounges, kitchenettes and laundry facilities on each floor. Grantham has three room types: traditional double, single, and super single. The first-floor lounge is spacious and complete with piano, game tables and TV lounge. It’s the perfect place to relax and kick back with friends or enjoy a leisurely game of pool or foosball.

Grantham Hall features the following:

  • Floors: 3+ main floor

Digital Cable is provided by MidCo Communications. Rooms are equipped with digital cable (older TV styles will not work). You will need to provide your own co-axial cable. If you have trouble connecting or would like to add DVR services (for a fee), MidCo answers the phone 24/7! Call 1.800.571.5463 from your room. You can also try online chat at www.midco.com/contact/live-chat for customer support. Please note: the call reps may not understand you are in a dorm room, not an off-campus apartment building; please stress you live in a university residence hall. Visit midco.com for channel list, self-help guides, online chat support and troubleshooting tips.

Wireless internet is available in your room, common areas/lounges in each hall. Wi-Fi is connected via StarID and password. For wireless internet support, email support@mnstate.edu with your building, room number and issue.

A limited number of MicroFridge (combination refrigerator, freezer, and microwave) will be available for rental on a first come first serve basis. They are $75 per semester.

All MicroFridges are booked for Fall. Please email housing@mnstate.edu if you would like to be put on the wait list.

If you reserve prior to the official Move-In Day, your MicroFridge will be in your room when you move in.

We strongly encourage our students to pursue renters insurance. You may arrange for renter's insurance through your own insurance company. MSUM does not insure personal belongings in student rooms. While we hope students will never need to file a renter's insurance claim, it is important to be prepared just in case.

Residents can submit a work request for their room via their myHousing portal. Log in and click the Maintenance tab. This is also where residents may view comments from Maintenance staff regarding the work. To submit work orders for public spaces in your hall, such as the bathroom, contact your RA or Hall Desk.
