Garcia Hall is an attractive patio-style residence hall that holds approximately 800 students each academic year. Garcia Hall offers plenty of opportunities for students to connect to the campus. It is ideal for students seeking a high-energy, active environment where they can jump in, make friends, and get involved. Each room is designed as a part of a suite where roommates share a bathroom with the residents of the adjoining room. Garcia Hall is ADA compliant and offers many well-designed rooms with an elevator to accommodate students with special needs.

Garcia Hall is home to various living/learning communities including the PGM Community, Fine Arts Community, the Business Community, and a community for the College of Agriculture and Home Economics.

Also located in Garcia Hall, La Vista Learning Center is a 10,000 square foot academic support area featuring two state-of-the-art classrooms, study areas, computer labs, faculty and academic advising spaces, and cyber café.
