... on Everything Else



Can I bring my car to campus?

During vacations and breaks, may I stay in the residence halls?
Residence halls remain open during the various university holidays and students are allowed to stay in their apartments depending on the terms and conditions of their contract.  Housing is closed to all residents during the time period between the end of the Summer semester and Fall move-in.

How will I receive mail while I am living on campus?
All students who live on campus are assigned a mailbox located in the Commons building. You will receive your mailbox and mailing address at move-in.
Your mail box number will be used in the address line followed by FGCU Campus Housing.  Note: to ensure proper mail delivery the word "Box" or the symbol # should not appear in the address.  Correspondence should be addressed as follows:

What if I decide to move off campus during the academic year?
 There is not one answer to this question.  Please read the terms and conditions of your contract carefully.  It contains important information regarding contract cancellations.  Once the contract is signed and returned to our office, it is binding for the entire length of the contract.

Can I have a tour of a room at North Lake Village before I arrive?
Yes, a representative model apartment is available for tours year-round; just stop by the Commons building between 10:00 am and 10:00 pm.  Our tour guides are Resident Assistants who live in our apartments and can answer all types of questions.  The Office of Admissions also provides complete campus tours, including a stop at the model apartment in North Lake Village.
