Clare Hall is a suite-style residence hall that houses approximately 146 first-year students. Clare Hall houses students of all identifying genders, but each suite contains only students of the same identifying gender. It is a three-story residence hall with an elevator, television lounge (located on the second floor) and two study rooms (located on the second and third floors). Clare Hall is named after Saint Clare of Assisi, an Italian saint and one of the first followers of Saint Francis.


Each suite has two separate bedrooms divided by a partial wall housing two or three students and a common bathroom for those four to five students to share. Bedrooms are supplied with one bed, dresser, desk and closet/wardrobe for each person residing in the room.
