Dane G. Hansen Scholarship Hall
Students from ANY academic major with an interest in living in a community immersed with creativity and innovation are welcome to apply to the Dane G. Hansen Scholarship Hall. As a resident, you will be part of a dynamic and engaged learning community whose members have the opportunity to travel, compete in pitch competitions, win cash awards, learn from successful entrepreneurs, and develop skills to advance their careers. Residents develop real-world skills to use their entrepreneurial mindset in whichever venture or career they pursue in the future.
This residence hall is a premier living space for a select group of 33 undergraduate and graduate students who have a passion for entrepreneurship. Thanks to major financial support from the Dane G. Hansen Foundation, residents pay approximately one-half the cost of comparable housing elsewhere on campus.
Hansen Hall is a 3-story building with 11 private rooms and community lounges with large-screen wall-mounted televisions on each floor. In addition to living spaces, the first floor houses a multi-purpose e-Lab and three technology-enabled “innovation rooms" with whiteboard walls where students can work together to develop new ideas. There is a fully equipped kitchen and free laundry facilities on site. Access to 3D printers and audio and video editing is just a short walk away in the Forsyth Library.
Personalized individual tours are scheduled through the Admissions Office for prospective students and incoming freshmen.
Applications for admission to Hansen Hall are competitive & space is limited. The 2024-2025 application cycle is now complete! The next round of applications will be reviewed in March 2025 for 2025-2026 occupancy. Details regarding application instructions will be posted to this page in the Fall.
