Maple Hill additions will be completed for next fall as well, and will add 350 spots for students, Alexander said.

This will contribute only 150 total spots because of Gladson-Ripley and Buchanan-Droke being closed at the same time, added Alexander. Together the units hold about 200 students, said Alexander.

The university currently houses 4,380 students, Alexander said.

In June 2005, the UA had Hanbury Evans Wright Vlattas and Company finish a physical plan for UA Housing. The report, the University Housing Strategic Plan, concluded that some current housing needs to be renovated, while completely new additions are needed. Some demolitions have also been planned. The plan has three phases, which are set to be completed over the next ten to 15 years, as reported by the Phase II report released in October 2006.

The expansion of Maple Hill is part of the Phase II plan. The additions to Maple Hill that opened this year were part of the Phase I plan, as well the closing of Walton Hall, according to the 2006 report.
