The Flats: Independent Living for Upperclassmen Students
Built in 2017, The Flats is a state-of-the-art apartment complex and the newest housing option at Wichita State. The Flats is located in the heart of the Innovation Campus and consists of 2, 3 & 4 bedroom apartments. Each apartment is fully furnished and comes with a full kitchen, washer & dryer, and a large common space with furniture.
Each apartment consists of a combination of single and double room spaces. Each room within the apartment has its own bathroom and walk-in closet. Please note that single room availability is extremely limited. Most room spaces are doubles (two twin XL beds with shared closet and bathroom).
Residents at The Flats experience the best of both worlds. They enjoy the perks of apartment living combined with the support and resources of a residence hall.
