Residence Life
Looking for a place to call home while attending school? Join the UNG family and stay in one of our six residence halls along with fellow classmates. We offer traditional, suite, and apartment housing.
Residency is only offered at the Dahlonega campus.
Room Change Instructions
Room change applications will be available beginning at 8:00 a.m. January 29 through 3:00 p.m. February 2, 2018.
Room Change Instructions:
Turn in the completed form to the Residence Life office in Suite 361 Stewart Center by the due date (3 p.m., February 2).
Wait to receive an approval email from the Residence Life office authorizing you to move.
Go to the Residence Life Office and pick up your Room Change Authorization Form and temporary Key Card.
Take the Room Change Authorization Form to your new RA (in Patriot, Donovan, Lewis) or the RA desk (in NG Suites, Commons, or Owen Hall) where your NEW ROOM is located to check in and receive a room key for your NEW ROOM and complete the electronic room condition report on the housing portal before you move.
After moving all your belongings, return to the RA desk where your OLD ROOM is located to check out and return the temporary key card and your room key for your OLD ROOM.
You will be fined $50 and/or your housing contract will be canceled at the discretion of the Residence Life office if you change rooms prior to receiving authorization and do not complete all steps in the process.
