Summer Housing for Graduate and Extended Campus Programs

Housing

We’re so glad you’re here! This page is focused on summer housing: graduate students looking for housing during the academic year can find more information on our Apply for Housing page.

 

What To Bring With You

What you choose to bring is based on your unique circumstances. Linens, towels, clothing, toiletries, laundry soap and course supplies are sufficient for most students. You may want bring hangers, as they are not provided in wardrobes or closets. UNC offers Bear Print stations around campus, so there’s no need to bring a printer. We also have items for checkout from your front desks including cleaning supplies, games, movies and cooking equipment.

Summer students will live in North Hall or South Hall, which are on West Campus within walking distance of Holmes Dining Hall, the Campus Recreation Center, Campus Commons, University Center and academic buildings. You’ll have kitchens, laundry rooms and spacious lounges with TVs. There are also music practice rooms and study rooms throughout, as well as larger spaces on the first floor for gatherings.

In South Hall and North Hall, most rooms are four-person suites with two double bedrooms, but single rooms within a suite or designated single rooms may be available. We also offer the option to “buy out” a room; this allows a double-occupancy bedroom to just have one person in it.

If you are looking to rent a MicroChill, please click below. Note: make sure you choose the Summer Rental option.

Rent a MicroChill

You will check in at the North Hall Community Desk. Most check-ins happen one day prior to the start of the academic program (generally on a weekend). Please contact our office and indicate on your application if you will need to change your arrival date. Upon check-in you will receive a room inventory to fill out and return to the front desk.

At the end of your time on campus, you’ll need to schedule your check out with a staff member. Check out appointments take about an hour.

Cleaning supplies, package pick-up and keys to music rooms are just a few of the services available to you at the front desk.

Need help with something in your room that’s not working right? You can contact the Ridge Front Desk at 970-351-2752 or submit a Work Request through UNC’s TMA iService Desk and use your BearMail for updates.

Note: You need to be connected to UNC Wired or Wireless Internet to submit a request.

To send mail via USPS, UPS, FedEx or other provider, please use our guidelines to ensure your mail arrives in a timely manner. Please do NOT put “UNC” or “University of Northern Colorado” on any mail. This will redirect it to the UNC general mail room for faculty, staff and department mail.

Wireless and wired connections are provided in student bedrooms. For devices that have a wired network connection, an ethernet cable is advised for the most reliable connection.
