Randolph–Macon College has over 65 academic, administrative, athletic, and residential buildings on its campus of located in the heart of Ashland, Virginia. The oldest building is Washington-Franklin Hall, built in 1872, soon after the college moved to Ashland from Boydton. It was the first brick building in Ashland, and its construction was funded by the students. Renovated in 1987, Washington-Franklin Hall now houses the history department. Pace-Armistead Hall was built in 1876 (renovated 1997) and originally housed the chemistry department. Today, it is home to the studio art department. The original Duncan Methodist Church was built in 1879 and was renovated to include classrooms and offices for the music and arts departments. All three buildings are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and collectively they make up "Historic Campus." Copley Science Center is the largest academic building on campus, and is connected to Macon Brock, Jr. Hall. Together, they house programs in biology, chemistry, physics/astrophysics, engineering, environmental studies, computer science, cybersecurity, psychology, behavioral neuroscience, data science and mathematics. Just north of Copley is
Keeble Observatory, which includes a 12" Cassegrain reflector optical telescope, and two
radio telescopes. Randolph-Macon has been repeatedly featured on Princeton Review's "Best Science Lab Facilities" list. Randolph-Macon has one main library: McGraw-Page Library. Formerly, the library was located in Peele Hall, which is now the main administrative building on-campus. There are 12 residence halls on campus. The seven halls on the north end of campus are collectively known as the Village. Many of the college's freshmen live in one of those halls. The four located near the center of campus house upperclassmen and the remaining freshmen. These include the two oldest residence halls – Thomas Branch Hall and Mary Branch Hall. The college also owns most of the fraternity and sorority houses, other houses devoted to special interest groups, and on-campus townhouses and apartments (usually reserved for seniors). Andrews Hall, named after former dean of students Rev. Ira Andrews, opened in fall 2011. The newest residence hall, Birdsong Hall, named for Constance and Thomas Birdsong '49, opened in fall 2014. Birdsong Hall provides housing for upperclassmen, including common areas, study rooms, and laundry facilities. In 2025, the college opened the Spotswood Village apartments, on the west side of the train tracks. The college completed a capital campaign in 2018, which exceeded its $100 million goal. A large portion of those funds went toward enhancing facilities, including two new residence halls, new football and baseball fields and stadiums, additions and renovations to the McGraw-Page Library and Copley Science Center, and the student center, Brock Commons, which was rebuilt in 2013. Subsequent fundraising efforts went to completing three additional buildings: Payne Hall, opened in 2020 and home to RMC's nursing program, Duke Hall in 2023, home to a master's degree program in Physician Assistants Studies as well as enhanced athletic facilities, and the enlarged and renovated Center for the Performing Arts. The main north–south railroad line for the east coast runs through the campus. Most of the campus is located to the east of the railroad, but a handful of college offices, special interest houses, and athletic fields are located to the west of the tracks. The Ashland train station (not part of the RMC campus) is directly across from the southern entrance to the campus.
