The Games Village Block 1 went up in flames at around 7.30am today.
It is believed the fire started on the ground floor, room number three, which was a self-contained room used as storage space.
Students rushed with buckets of water to contain the fire that was spreading rapidly through mattresses and other items stored in there.
One of the students was injured in the process and rushed to the hospital.
The male student warden and building resident, Samuel Banake, said the cause of the fire is yet to be established.
