Student Life
The majority of Briercrest College students live in residence and participate in a school meal plan in a dining hall operated by Sodexo.
The college dormitories have a history of being named after people who have had significant impact throughout the history of the schools. Current dormitories at Briercrest include:
- Isabel Whittaker (women), often called "Whit"
- Sinclair Whittaker (men), often called "Whit"
- Hillson Hall (women, high school)
- Bergren Place (women)
- Sundbo Place (married students, women, and men over 21 years of age)
- Lewis Apartments (men), known fondly as "LA"
- Eliason Manor (men) built in 2005
- Glen Manor (men, high school)
- Brygmann Hall (men, closed), often known as "Brygg"
The last of the war-building dormitories, known most recently as Gable Heights, was demolished in summer 2005.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It is not enough that our life is an easy one. We must live on the stretch, retiring to our rest like soldiers on the eve of a battle, looking forward to the strenuous sortie of the morrow.”
