About Janney House

Janney House is a mid-size corridor-style residence accommodating approximately 40–50 students, with communal bathrooms shared by each floor. Named after a figure in Haverford's early history, the building has a traditional layout typical of the college's historic residential stock. No central AC — the mild suburban Philadelphia climate makes this manageable for most of the academic year, though the first few weeks of fall can be warm. The Honor Code's no-RA structure means students self-govern; Janney is a particularly social corridor given its size and placement on campus.
