Georgian offers a variety of housing options to students – from on-campus residences (Barrie, Orillia and Owen Sound campuses) to off-campus apartment buildings, room and board, and houses to rent or share. One cannot succeed in school without nourishment.
Georgian College is home to one of Ontario’s strongest varsity programs.

Georgian College students, community members and faculty have access to an impressive array of fitness facilities, programs and services through physical education and athletics.
Georgian’s seven campuses encompass a total area of 21,000 square kilometres (almost the same size as the country of El Salvador) and are located in some of the most sought-after areas in Central Ontario: Barrie, Downtown Barrie location (Arch and Helen Brown Design and Digital Arts Centre), Midland, Muskoka (Bracebridge), Orangeville, Orillia, Owen Sound and South Georgian Bay (Collingwood). Campuses play important roles in each of these communities, serving as centres for academic, social and cultural activities, and contributing to the social and economic well-being of the areas.
