Testing students as they return to campus is a consistent safety measure for many UNC institutions. This testing plan has already identified several covid-positive staff and faculty members before they entered campus. Every positive case we identify limits the spread in our community. The reentry testing plan is only one way we are trying to keep UNCSA safe this spring, we will also have weekly asymptomatic testing and are requiring that our students follow our Community Health Standards. 

Current student, faculty or staff members may file a report regarding a violation of the UNCSA Community Health Standards.

Once arriving in the US, international travelers should stay in their residence hall, practice social distancing and monitor their health for 14 days. Contact TaWanna Archia if you need assistance with meal delivery and other needs. Students who have registered for in-person classes cannot attend in-person classes during this 14-day period. Please keep this in mind when making your travel arrangements.

• Residential housing are standard, double occupancy in residence halls and apartments. Density is reduced by having some quads converted to doubles, and some smaller doubles converted to singles.
• Only residents of an individual room can be in that room. No visitors are permitted.

Our residence life custodial team will clean and disinfect public and commonly used spaces, as well as community restrooms and showers used by the residents more frequently. Residents and staff will be required to disinfect some of these spaces before and after usage to further help protect against infection. Cleaning requirements are based on CDC Guidance for Cleaning and Disinfecting Public Spaces and require the use of USEPA approved Disinfectants for Use Against SARS-CoV-2.

Routine cleaning and disinfection does not include areas that are not publicly accessible (i.e. individual rooms). Residents are responsible for cleaning and disinfection of spaces that are not publicly accessible.

The UNC System has authority over university refund protocols and will issue guidance in the event that students have to leave campus. The current UNC System issued guidance does state that housing and dining refunds may not be available without state or federal financial relief. This should not be interpreted as a definitive decision by the UNC System not to issue refunds under any circumstances. If UNCSA is able to offer financial relief to students, we would certainly like to do so.

No. Students may leave their belongings in their residence halls over the winter break, however they must take all valuables and materials they will need because they cannot reenter until early February 2021. Students residing in A-F dorms may not stay on campus during the break, students in Center Stage or Gateway apartments are allowed to stay on campus during the break.

Parents and family members will not be able to go to their student's room after move in is complete. They are allowed to visit their students in common areas or sign their student out for visits.

UNCSA will continue to operate on a standard 15-week semester. Annual housing and dining rates are calculated based on 15-week occupancy and are not based on exact number of days occupied. The length of stay is often longer than 15 weeks to account for breaks, early arrival, arts intensives and late departures. 

Tuition & Fees

Scheduled eating times were not needed during the fall semester. Campus dining locations will be monitored for lines and concerns during the first two weeks of classes. If it is determined that schedules are needed then we will make adjustments including implementing schedules.
