Loretto is an all-women’s student residence building within St. Michael’s College campus, located on the “upper east side” of the St. Michael’s College campus in the heart of downtown Toronto. Loretto College is a community that reflects the vibrant, multicultural nature of its diverse resident population.
Our goal is to create a comfortable and welcoming environment by facilitating interactions that support the development of positive relationships, and that foster mutual respect among our residents. This focus on a positive community makes Loretto a comfortable place in which to study, socialize, and relax.
Preference is given to St. Michael’s College undergraduates who are studying in the Faculty of Arts and Science. However, students from professional faculties such as Engineering, Music, and Kinesiology — as well as graduate students — are welcome to apply. Since many of Loretto’s residents live here for the duration of their degree at the University of Toronto, returning students who meet the eligibility requirements receive first priority when reassigning rooms for the next academic year.
