SUNYIT currently guarantees on campus housing in traditional residence halls and suite style buildings. Oriskany Hall, a newly constructed residence with LEED Silver Certification, primarily houses first year students. Oriskany is comprised of 14, 25 or 28 person double and single room suites with multiple restrooms, a shared kitchenette, shared conference/study room and shared living room. Oriskany also hosts three large classrooms and a full kitchen for building events and academic courses.

Upper-class students reside in Mohawk and Adirondack complexes. Buildings hold 16 students in 4-person suites with a shared bathroom and common living room and primarily single bedrooms. Both Mohawk and Adirondack have full kitchens and lounges available in a common area for resident student use.

There is a limited amount of Graduate Student Only Housing in Mohawk complex. A section of this upper-class and graduate student housing complex is reserved for graduate students only.  Space is limited, and graduate students who are committed to living on campus should apply for housing immediately to increase the likelihood of securing a room in this area. Graduate students may also be housed in Adirondack and Oriskany depending upon demand and timing of applications.

Ethernet, wireless and cable service are provided for all resident students. Resident students also have access to laundry facilities within their own complex. Returning students are eligible to select their own suitemates and housing via a lottery system in the spring semester of each year.
