The Faculty Housing Project at Taibah University is one of the university’s landmark initiatives, launched in 2025, aiming to provide an integrated residential environment that enhances the quality of university life and promotes stability for faculty members and their families.
The project includes a variety of villas and apartment buildings designed according to high standards of quality and urban integration. It offers a range of essential services and facilities that ensure residents’ comfort and easy access to their daily needs.
The housing complex also features several support facilities, such as a mosque, retail shops, maintenance buildings, and service centers, creating a well-rounded residential community within a safe and sustainable environment.
This project reflects Taibah University’s commitment to developing its infrastructure and improving the academic working environment, in alignment with the goals of Saudi Vision 2030 to enhance quality of life and promote sustainability across higher education institutions.
The Faculty Housing at Taibah University is designated for university staff members, including faculty and equivalent positions, in accordance with the Regulations for Faculty, Equivalent Staff, and Employees Housing, which govern the allocation and usage process.
This program aims to provide a suitable residential environment that supports the stability of academic and administrative staff and enhances the overall quality of university life.

Priority for allocation is determined by the Housing Committee based on specific criteria such as marital status, number of dependents, and years of service at the university.
The applicant must comply with all housing regulations, including rules for proper use, maintenance, and preservation of public property.
Eligibility must be renewed annually based on evaluation by the relevant authority and continued fulfillment of the requirements.
