The Office of Housing and Residence Life provides students with opportunities to develop skills necessary for living successfully in a community and a democratic society.

Housing and Residence Life allows students a safe, clean environment to develop independence, to assess their values, and to develop a spirit of community building.

Beginning 2011 Fall Semester, 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.edu/housing/forms

The University of North Carolina at Pembroke provides students with numerous housing opportunities. This includes six residence halls (Belk, North, Oak, Pine, Wellons, Cypress and University Village Apartments).
