On-Campus Living Requirement
All newly admitted students, freshman and transfer students, with less than 20 college credit hours earned after high school graduation (or equivalent), who are under 21 and not living with a parent or legal guardian in the local area must live in the university’s residence halls through the completion of the first academic year of their attendance.
Local area is defined by school district. Included school districts are Ault Highland RE-9, Eaton RE-2, Greeley 6, Platte Valley RE-7, Poudre R-1, Thompson R-2J, Weld County RE-5J, Weld RE-1 and Windsor RE-4.
Credits earned through Advanced Placement (AP), International Baccalaureate (IB), College-Level Examination Program (CLEP) or concurrent enrollment with high school do not apply towards the live-on requirement.
Although some students are exempt from the live-on requirement, UNC is a residential campus and encourages all students to live on campus to increase their connection to the UNC community.
