Interested in living in the residence halls at UNC Asheville? We'd love to have you join us! If you want to learn more about our residence halls, click here for more information. Below you will find helpful notes on our housing application process. Please feel free to contact us with any questions you have. Housing Application process for prospective students: back to top When accepted to UNC Asheville by the Admissions Office, students receive an admissions packet that includes a Tuition and Housing Deposit Form and Residence Hall Application. All students must complete this form and return it to Admissions (the address is on the back of the form) with a tuition deposit ($150) and housing deposit ($150) which may be combined in one $300 payment.
All first year students are required to live on campus.
The date a completed housing application is received in the Housing Operations office is one of the factors used to determine housing assignments. In other words, students who submit housing applications earlier in the process have a better chance of receiving their preferred assignments.
Housing applications for fall enrollment may be submitted during the preceding fall, winter, spring or summer. Students who submit applications by May 1 are usually assured campus housing for fall semester. May 1 is also the date by which students who wish to room together may request this assignment in writing or in the space indicated on the application and be assured that every effort will be made to honor their request. Housing applications are accepted year-round, although students who apply after June 1 may experience a longer wait for their fall housing assignments. Housing assignments and roommates’ names and addresses are mailed to students enrolling for fall semester by mid-July. Students enrolling for spring semester will receive their assignments by early January.
The $150 housing deposit is refundable if a student submits a written cancellation of his/her housing application to the Housing Office by May 1 for fall enrollment or December 1 for spring enrollment. At any time, failure to properly notify the Housing Office of a cancellation will result in forfeiture of the deposit. Opportunities to visit campus: back to top You're always welcome at UNC Asheville. A good time to visit is for an Open House. These events are sponsored by the Office of Admissions to give prospective students and their families a chance to tour the campus, meet professors and learn about campus life. Tours are offered regularly when the university is in session. To schedule a visit, call the Office of Admissions, (828)251-6481 or 1-(800)531-9842, between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, visit the Admissions Office web site. The New Student Guide to the Housing Process: back to top Welcome to University of North Carolina at Asheville! Our Housing Preference form is available online and should be submitted electronically by June 1. On this date, all submitted Housing Preference forms will be assigned a number based on the date of the Housing Application. This means that the earlier you apply for housing, the higher you will be in the room assignments process. Unlike many schools, our room assignment process is done carefully by hand. While we do our best to find you the best roommate possible, please realize that we are not always able to meet everyone's specific choices. Housing Preference forms submitted after the June 1st deadline will be considered at a later date when there may be fewer options available.
All freshmen students are required to live on campus. We hope the years you will spend living on campus will have a long-lasting impact. We encourage students to see this as a time to for appreciating cultural and personal differences and exploring relationships that you will remember for a lifetime.
Our Residential Education and Housing Operations staff is here to help turn your preferences into the ideal residential experience for you. Our hope is that this guide will help assure your experience is a positive one.
