Resident Student
To be eligible to move into the residence halls a student must be officially registered for 12 + credits each semester and be in good financial standing ( No billing holds ). Billing holds that prevents a student from officially registering and attending classes also prevents a student from moving into the residence halls .
Financial matters can be discussed with the staff at the Campbell Solution Center or the Student Billing Office . All students must complete their financial aid paperwork and have their funding in place prior to moving into the residence halls or attending any class at the beginning of each academic semester . For residence students , having their funding in place means they must be paid in full or signed up for the payment plan and have paid their first installment payment . If you do not have your funding in place based on the above specifications , you will not be cleared to move into the residence halls . You will be asked to leave and will not be able to move yourself or your belongings into the residence halls until your funding is in place .
