Polk Street Residence
Polk Street Residence (PSR) is a suite-style hall available to students who are first-year standing and above.

Each floor has a lounge and community kitchenette. It is located in the Illinois Medical District, with a UIC shuttle stop conveniently located in front of PSR, which allows for a quick trip to other sides of campus.
