Stockton recently purchased the nearby Seaview Resort & Golf Course. They plan to convert a portion of Seaview's hotel rooms into student housing while still maintaining a functioning hotel and golf course. The Seaview purchase also fits in with plans to build a hospitality school, with a hotel and conference center to be operated as part of the college's business programs in hospitality and tourism management.

In the spring of 2011, Stockton opened a new 154,000-square-foot campus center. The center is a "one-stop shopping center" for students, containing the registrar's and bursar's offices, advisers' offices, a food court, lounges and meeting rooms. The center includes a 250 seat theater, suitable for small intimate theatrical performances.
