On Campus Housing Information

A Housing Agreement/Application must be completed by all students entering UNCP who request to reside on campus. The application can be obtained from the Office of Housing and Residence Life located on the second floor in University Center Annex, suite 207, or from the web site at www.uncp.edu/housing. This application and a $150 deposit must be on file before a room assignment can be considered. The deposit protects the room reservation until the student graduates, terminates his/her Housing Agreement, or has his/her Housing Agreement terminated and is refundable provided the procedures detailed in the Housing Agreement/Application are followed. All students moving into student housing must have paid their room and board fees before keys can be issued.

Living on campus at UNCP is an integral part of the educational experience. Meeting new people who will become lifelong friends, establishing regular contact with faculty and administrative personnel, and having access to numerous programs scheduled throughout the year, make living on campus a rewarding experience.

A student residing in campus housing must be enrolled for a full-time academic load 9 semester hours or more for undergraduate students and 6 semester hours for graduate students. Exceptions to this policy may be requested to the Director of Housing and Residence Life or his/her designated representative.

First year freshman students at UNCP are required to reside on campus for their initial academic year. Attendance during MayMester, Summer Sessions, programs at UNCP or programs at other institutions do not apply toward the fulfillment of this requirement. For purposes of this requirement, a first-year freshman residential student is defined as: any incoming student who will not be 21 years of age prior to August 1st of the initial enrollment year and who is registered for a course load of 9 credit hours or more. A first year freshman who transfers to UNCP during the spring semester with fewer than 12 hours of credit and falling within the age and course load requirements listed above will be considered first year freshmen and subject to this policy. AP College credit or Dual Enrollment credits do not apply toward the fulfillment of this requirement.

This requirement may be waived if the student is 1) living either with a parent or guardian; 2) married; 3) a parent or guardian with legal custody of children; 4) 21 years of age prior to August 1st; 5) a veteran; or 6) a student with a special need (documentation will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis). A student must complete a “First Year Freshman Authorization to Commute Form” and submit to the Housing Coordinator in the Office of Housing and Residence Life. A student requesting a waiver should submit the form by the deadline of July 31 for students beginning the fall semester and December 15 for students beginning in the spring semester. A copy of the waiver form may be obtained at www.uncp/housing/forms


The Housing Coordinator will render a decision based on the information provided. The student may appeal to the Director of Housing and Residence Life after notification of the Housing Coordinator’s decision. If a student chooses to appeal the Director’s decision, the student may appeal to the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs. The decision of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs is final and conclusive. The only issue to be considered in any appeal at any level is whether or not the individual's appeal request fits the criteria listed above.

First year freshman students who meet the residency requirement but do not submit a Housing Agreement or are not approved to be exempt from the requirement will automatically be assigned on-campus housing. The student will be required to pay room and meal charges for the academic year to satisfy the first year freshman residency requirement. Information for New Students

The University has residence halls and an apartment complex all centrally located to dining facilities, the Chavis University Center, athletic facilities, and computer labs.

Termination of Campus Housing by the University

Campus housing is a privilege and not a right. The University will terminate a student’s Housing Agreement when behavior is disruptive or when actions are abusive to the facilities. Violations which compromise the safety and security of residents will result in exclusion from the residence halls and termination of the Housing Agreement. Termination of the Housing Agreement is not disciplinary in nature but is a function of providing safe and comfortable accommodations to all residents. However, termination of the Housing Agreement does not preclude discipline by the University for violation of University rules, nor does it preclude civil or criminal proceedings in the courts where such is appropriate.

Any appeal of the Director of Housing and Residence Life's decision to terminate the Housing Agreement must be made to the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs whose decision shall be final. The Vice Chancellor will make a decision based upon the merits of each individual case.

<Return to Top of Page>


Room Condition (Room Size)

Upon vacating a room, a student shall leave the assigned room, its furnishings and equipment in a condition equal to the same as they were upon commencement of the student’s occupancy, ordinary wear and tear excepted. In addition to the check by student staff, maintenance staff will check the room for cleaning/damages, which will be assessed to the responsible individuals. Personal property left in a room following the termination of occupancy will be deemed to have been abandoned. Students may be charged for the removal of such property.

No alterations or repairs may be made to the assigned room, its furnishings or equipment without the expressed written consent of the Housing Office. University furniture must remain in the room and may not be placed in storage.

The University will assess damage charges for unauthorized use of, and alterations to rooms, furnishings, equipment, and buildings, and for special cleaning necessitated by improper care of rooms. Charges are also made for damages/excessive cleaning to public areas with all residents of a corridor or suite held accountable for equal portions of the total charges when responsibility remains undetermined. Cleaning/damage charges will be assessed to the student.

University’s Right to Entry

The University reserves the right (a) to enter any room/apartment for the purpose of inspection, maintenance, or repairs; (b) to enter any room/apartment without notice to, or permission of, the resident thereof for the purpose of (1) inspecting for illegal drugs or narcotics and (2) inspecting for firearms, explosives, weapons, or any substances, materials or goods that may constitute a danger to persons in the residence halls or where their possession is a breach of the Housing Agreement, of the standards and regulations of the University, or the laws of North Carolina; (c) to enter any room/apartment when there is reason to believe that the occupants are in serious physical or psychological danger or distress. Such entry and inspection, however, should be made only when the University has reasonable cause to believe that such items or circumstances exist.

Visitation Policy

The visitation program for on-campus student housing creates a structure for residents to bring guests into their rooms.  Students residing on-campus are expected to view their academic responsibilities as their primary goal; therefore, studying takes preference over socializing in student residences on weekday nights.  On the weekend when fewer classes are scheduled, a greater amount of leisure time and social or non-academic activities are usually more prominent.  The guidelines for visitation are grounded in the academic schedule and are designed to balance a student’s responsibilities with individual and group needs.  

 
General Policies and Procedures
All residents are responsible to escort their guest at all times while the guest remains in the building and to inform their guest of all university policies and regulations.  Hosts are responsible for their guests’ behavior, for any damages incurred and for the adherence to all university policies and procedures.  Guests in residence halls with a receptionist area must register with the staff when entering and exiting the building.  False identification will be submitted to Campus Police for appropriate action.  Three guests per resident will be allowed unless permission is granted by a Resident Administrator.  Students and their guest are responsible for using the appropriate restroom for their gender.  Public facilities are located in the main lobby of each building. 


Loss of Privileges
Like most opportunities at the university, visitation is not a right, but rather a privilege that may be suspended at any time for violations of policies.  Visitation privileges may be suspended administratively by the Office of Housing and Residence Life or by a judicial officer as a result of disciplinary action.  Modifications to the visitation policy may be imposed if a student’s rights are being compromised.

    
Days and Hours
The hours of visitation for Belk Hall, North Hall, Oak Hall, Pine Hall, and Wellons Hall on Sunday through Thursday shall not exceed 11am through midnight and 11am on Friday and Saturday through 2am on Saturday and Sunday.  Twenty-four hour visitation is permitted in the lobby and first floor lounge area.  Hallways, stairways, and upstairs lounges are not considered twenty-four hour visitation areas.  Visitation for the University Village Apartments and Cypress Residence Hall is open visitation.  Open visitation implies that restrictions are determined by roommates and suitemates according to each other’s rights and needs.  Respect for the wishes and well being of one’s roommate(s) is more important than someone’s desire to have guests.  Extended in-hall visitation privileges allow residents of the building access to visit other residents within their residence hall.
