Frequently Asked Questions
What is included in each housing tier, and how do I know which option is best for me?
Each housing tier offers a different level of space, privacy, and amenities so you can choose an option that best supports your needs and budget.
- Primary Room provides a traditional dorm experience that includes a two-person shared bedroom, convenient access to a shared bathroom, and complimentary communal laundry facilities for easy day-to-day living.
- Deluxe Room offers an apartment-style experience with exterior-door access, a shared bedroom and bathroom, an in-unit kitchenette and dining space, complimentary communal laundry, and the added benefit of an on-site exercise facility.
- Premier Room features an elevated apartment-style experience with exterior-entry access, two bedrooms per unit with shared bathrooms, a kitchenette and dining area, a fully furnished living room, an in-unit washer and dryer, and convenient access to the on-site exercise facility.
All tiers are designed with student safety, comfort, and community in mind. Families can determine the best fit by considering the preferred level of privacy, lifestyle habits, study needs, and desired campus experience.
Are dining plans required for students?
Yes, all students are required to choose a dining plan to ensure consistent access to on-campus dining and balanced nutrition.
How do parking tiers differ?
Parking tiers differ based on location, convenience, and access:
- Primary Parking provides access to standard campus lots.
- Premier Parking offers closer proximity to residence halls and provides the highest level of convenience.
When do we select our housing, parking, and dining plan tiers, and are returning students given priority?
Selection begins during the spring semester for the upcoming academic year. Exact dates will be published on the Committed Student webpage and communicated via email.
Prospective students make their selections after submitting their enrollment deposit.
Current students receive priority access based on class standing and the date their housing application is submitted.
This ensures returning students have early opportunities to secure their preferred tiers while giving incoming students ample time to choose options that best fit their needs.
Can my meal swipes and HC cash be rolled over to the next year if I don’t use them all?
Meal swipes and HC Cash do not roll over from year to year, so we encourage students to select a plan that best matches their dining needs each semester.
Where can HC Cash be used?
HC Cash can be used at the Campus Goods and Supply, the Resolute Bistro and the Highlands Café.
