The Sylvan Residential Area is an apartment-style residential community at UMass Amherst providing suite-style accommodations with semi-private bathrooms for upperclassmen and graduate students seeking a more independent residential experience on campus. Located on the edge of the main campus in a more wooded, tranquil setting, Sylvan offers residents a quieter atmosphere while maintaining convenient access to UMass's academic buildings, the Five College Consortium, and the cultural offerings of Amherst and the Pioneer Valley. Sylvan's individual residential buildings — including Birch, Elm, and Maple halls — house students in a community-oriented but more independent living arrangement than the corridor-style halls.
