Welcome!

We are so excited that you will be attending  High Point University.  Please see below for answers to some frequently answered questions.  If you do not see your question answered here, please contact our office at 336.841.9231.


What  do I need to bring with me to school?
  •  All of our dorms come fully furnished with a dresser, desk, desk chair, bed frame, twin bed, and trash can.  High Point University has created a list of things that we think are important to bring. 
Are the beds Twin or XL Twin?
  • All of our beds are regular twin size.  If you require an XL twin mattress, please contact our office, and we will be happy to accommodate your request.
Are there cable hook ups in each room?  What about wireless internet?
  • All of our rooms have a cable connection.  Each room is provided basic cable.  If a student wants to purchase an upgraded cable package, they may contact a local provider to do so.
  • Our entire campus is wireless, including all of our residential buildings.
What if I want to change my roommate?
  • The Office of Student Life wants to ensure that every student feels comfortable in their living environment.  If for some reason you have concerns about the roommate that you were matched with, please contact the Director of Residence Life at 336.841.9120.
I did not get assigned to one of my top building choices, am I on a waiting list?
  • You are on a waiting list.  Any student that did not get their first housing choice, was automatically put on a waiting list for all of their top choices.  As there is movement, students will be contacted if they are next in line on the list.  At any time, please feel free to contact us and we would be happy to let you know where you are on the list.
