This study conducted the analysis of local residents`` perceptions using a questionnaire survey to reveal the effects of community liaison of university dormitories on urban revitalization. The results shown as follows. First, for the location of community-linked dormitories, local residents showed a above-average positive response to all five types of a university dormitory. In particular, a downtown campus boundary type and a downtown type linked with the existing commercial district showed local residents`` high expectation of urban revitalization and a high synergy effect. Second, when downtown campus dormitories have the existing infrastructures such as a campus village, location selection is required to contribute to physical, economical, cultural, and social revitalization of surroundings through an active liaison with the infrastructures. When downtown campus boundary dormitories have inactivated surroundings, plans should be considered to contribute to surroundings revitalization through the inducement of university functions which can share with community other than lodging functions like foreign universities. Considering difficulties in expanding boarding life-related infrastructures in outskirts, outskirts dormitories should be located in the place to enhance a liaison with the existing downtown to contribute to urban revitalization and improve the quality of university life. Finally, in the future relationship between university dormitories and community, further researches should focus on mixed-use for chemical combination and expectable synergy effects. Also an alternative of the use during holidays, which is little understood now, should be positively examined and explored to maintain sustained settled population in dormitory facilities.
