New dorms that will hold thousands of students coming to TCU

The TCU Board of Trustees have announced a number of campus construction and development updates that will push the school’s new strategic plan further into motion.

Trustees agreed during their meeting March 26 to several updates on a number of major capital projects, including dorms and major renovations. A dorm for about 2,500 students will open on the east side of the campus in the fall 2027 semester. That agreement came as the university continues to roll out its ambitious enrollment increase campaign in the coming years.

Other development updates from the meeting include a new east campus parking garage and police station, which will be completed in February 2027, major renovations to the campus’ Market Square at Brown-Lutpon Univeristy Union, estimated to be finished in August, and a new TCU golf training and teaching facility, estimated to open in May. Sesquincentennial Plaza on campus will also be renovated.
