=== Student living ===
Wheaton students live in a variety of ways. There are 18 traditional residence halls; some, like Meadows and Beard, were built in the 2000s, while others date back to the late 1800s. Most have single and double rooms, with two buildings dedicated to suites of 3–6 people.

They range from Farm House, which is an active farm, to the United World College Davis House, to the Feminist Perspective House.
