It depends on the building. Reinert Hall and Fusz Hall both explicitly list central air conditioning on their own hall pages.

The Griesedieck Complex (Griesedieck, Clemens and Walsh halls) uses window air conditioning units instead of central air. Personal AC units are prohibited campus-wide regardless of which hall you're in.

Reinert Hall Dorm Checklist 2026

Reinert Hall is a converted Marriott hotel two blocks south of main campus — SLU does not publish an exact conversion year, so year built is not confirmed. Rooms are unusually large (roughly 12'1" x 27') with private full baths, a real standout among SLU's first-year halls. Its 'Double Deluxe' room type sleeps three via a bunk-bed pair plus one separate Twin XL bed — a genuine bunk configuration, distinct from any loft/adjustable-height frame (SLU never describes its beds that way).
