Centennial Village opens its doors as the newest ’Canes move in to start new academic year

As more than 2,800 incoming first-year and transfer students and their families descended on the University of Miami for 2024 ’Cane Kickoff, the University’s weeklong orientation program that precedes the new academic year, Coral and Ibis Residential Colleges welcomed residents for the first time. They are the first two of five planned residential colleges to make up Centennial Village and part of the second phase of the multiyear plan to modernize and reimagine campus housing.
