    • Newly admitted fall students

      New UNG students may apply for a housing contract by completing the following steps:

      1. Apply for admission at UNG as a residential student or contact the Office of Undergraduate Admissions to request a change to residential status if the student originally applied to UNG as a commuting student.
      2. After acceptance to UNG, students must confirm their attendance through the Check Application Status page.
      3. New students should check their UNG e-mail account for a housing portal notification from Residence Life. 
      4. Housing contracts, room selection, and roommate selection are all available through the UNG housing portal. Deadlines for housing are communicated through email.
    • Current UNG students

      Current UNG students may apply for a housing contract by completing the following steps:

      1. Residence Life will notify current residents via e-mail before the housing contract process opens.  
      2. Please note that per UNG's Residence Policy, students who are freshmen and sophomores are required to live on campus. Students who believe that they have a unique hardship may request a waiver to the Residence Policy through the Dean of Students Office. 
      3. Please note that housing contracts are binding once completed. Students wishing to cancel a housing contract should consult the cancellation terms in their housing contract as termination fees will likely apply.

    FAQs

    • Can I move into my room early/late?

      The residence halls open at designated times for each semester. Residents are not allowed to move in early. Each student is expected to move in at their assigned time.

    • What items should I bring with me?

      You should bring items that will make you feel most comfortable in your room. However, remember that you will be sharing this space with another person. Also, there are items not allowed in the UNG Residence Halls. You may access What To Bring, a list of recommended items to bring, a list of items provided in the residence hall and room, and a list of items prohibited in the UNG residence halls.

    • What happens if I do not like my roommate?

      Most residents self-select their roommates through the UNG Housing Portal.  For students who do not self-select, the Residence Life Staff puts a lot of effort into assigning compatible roommates, and we ask you to make every effort to work out minor issues. However, in either case, there are several opportunities during the year for a student to find a new roommate and change rooms.

    • Can I stay on campus during the holidays or breaks?

      UNG Suite-style housing (NG Suites, The Commons, non-cadet students in Patriot Hall) is open during university holidays and breaks. Academic year contracts for Suite-style housing end the Sunday following graduation each spring.  Separate summer housing contracts are available for NG Suites for students who are taking summer classes.

    • Is it possible to get a single or private room?
      Both double and limited single room options are available in North Georgia Suites and in The Commons. Single occupancy rooms for freshmen are often limited to students with disability accommodations.  
    • Can I live off campus?

      Full-time students who have not earned 60 semester hours and do not meet one of the exceptions to the Residence Policy must live on campus.

      Students may live off-campus if they live with and commute daily from the permanent legal residence of parent(s) or grandparent(s) within 50 miles of the campus; are 21 years of age or older; or have completed 2 years of successful active military service. 

    • Do I have to buy a meal plan?

      Residents in the following halls are required to purchase a 10, 15, or All Access (unlimited) meal plan. Students are originally assigned an All Access Plan but may change to a 15 or 10 meal plan before or during drop-add.

      • Donovan Hall (traditional style)

    • What types of internet access are provided in the residence halls?

      Each residence hall room is wired for computer access to the campus network. It is the student’s responsibility to have the appropriate configurations on his/her computer.

      There are two wireless networks in the residence halls, UNG-RESNet-Media and UNG-RESNet. UNG-RESNet is devoted to connecting laptops, phones, and tablets.
