Welcome to Pioneer Heights! Located on the Â鶹ÃÛÌÒAV Campus, the student apartments are modern, comfortable and affordable. In a community designed to meet the needs of students, you will experience no commute, parking hassles, unexpected rent increases, or searches to replace lost roommates. All on-campus housings consist of apartments. In the suites, there are 4 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. In each bedroom students can opt for 2 or 3 occupants. The rates are cheaper for 3 occupancy. Single room occupancy is only available in Shasta and Diablo which are two buildings reserved for upper classmen.

The following amenities are available in Pioneer Heights:

  • These apartments are fully furnished with a kitchenette that includes cabinets, dining table and chairs, a full sized refrigerator and a microwave. There is also a living area where you can hangout. There are no stoves for cooking as residents have complete mealplans.
  • Within the complex, there are free laundry machines at the designated laundry areas in both Lassen and El Dorado.
  • Spaces for activities or study can be found within the apartment buildings and also in both Lassen and El Dorado.
