Campus Life at UNC: Your College Experience
College is about more than classes—it’s about making connections. You’ll have the chance to join campus events, activities, clubs, and organizations that help you build real, lasting friendships and expand your social network.
Our Peer Mentors are here to help you get involved and feel connected across all areas of campus life. Through everyday social interactions, you’ll discover your interests, strengths, and the kind of person you want to become.
Live on Campus and Gain Life Skills
GOAL students can live in North Hall, a supportive on-campus housing option that helps you build independence and life skills. You’ll live alongside your peers and enjoy the full college experience.
Residence Life Mentors are available to offer support and help you navigate campus living. You’ll also have access to the same housing resources and services as all UNC students. All students are expected to follow UNC’s Housing & Residential Education policies.
