Pet-Friendly
The pet-friendly community is one of our most popular options at UNC. Although every pet must go through
an approval process before arriving on campus, this a place where you can live with
your pet. If you are a pet lover, but don’t have your own pet to bring to college,
this is also a great place for you! You’ll need to complete additional application
documents to be considered for this community.
