Housing Application: Your Step-by-Step Guide

Apply for housing at Northampton Community College in 5 easy steps. To be eligible for on-campus housing at NCC, you need to be registered for a minimum of nine credits each semester. Each semester, you must meet the academic standards outlined in the Residence Hall Handbook to continue living on campus.

First up: be admitted as an NCC student. To complete your application, make sure you send us:

  • High school or GED transcripts
  • SAT or ACT scores
  • Transcripts from any other institutions you’ve attended
  • Completed online application
Review our admissions page and the full enrollment checklist for more information.

Apply for housing online in just a few minutes. As part of the application, pay the $225 NCC housing application and deposit fee using a credit or debit card.

Refund Policy
  • Fall Applicants - $200 deposit is refundable until July 1 once a housing contract is signed.
  • Spring Applicants - $200 deposit is non-refundable after a contract is signed (this is due to less timing before the semester starts).

File a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) as early as you can. We use your FAFSA filing to put together your financial aid package, which may include scholarships, grants and loans to help offset the cost of your education (including housing costs).

The Housing Health Form helps us keep you safe on campus. Only a few people have access to it: your Residence Hall Director and appropriate designee(s), the Northampton Community College Health and Wellness Center, the appropriate health care agency, and/or your named emergency contact.

Complete your Housing Health Form as soon as possible and upload it to MyRecordTracker. We need to review your Housing Health Form before you move in.

Once you’ve completed all the steps of the Northampton housing application, we will send you a decision within a couple weeks. You can then choose to accept or decline the housing offer. Your housing decision does not affect your admission to NCC.
