Something for Everyone
UNE’s Biddeford Campus hits the “just right” sweet spot between a cozy, supportive home-away-from-home and a buzzing, active community where there’s always something for you to do. Meet friends at The Pub in the Danielle Ripich Commons for a bite, work out at one of our fitness centers, enjoy a movie night in your dorm, cheer on a Nor’easter team, or take a sunset stroll on Freddy Beach — this is a place where you can do you.

There’s no better way to build your community, pursue your passions, and have a boatload of fun.
Living on Campus
We know it’s a lot easier to succeed academically when you feel like you’re an integral part of a supportive community, eating and sleeping well, socializing and having fun, and able to find help when you have a problem. UNE reserves six residence halls for first-year students only, making it easier to bond and form enduring friendships. As upperclassmen, you’ll experience living in suite-style dorms.
