About Off-Campus Housing Near North Carolina Central University
North Carolina Central University anchors the Hayti neighborhood of Durham, North Carolina, where about 8,100 Eagles attend the first state-supported liberal arts college founded for African American students. The campus sits just off Fayetteville Street, historic main street of a community that built one of the country's most storied Black business districts. Durham, the Bull City, turned its old tobacco warehouses into a downtown of museums, performance spaces, and public plazas, and its pride in this HBCU runs deep. Homecoming brings a parade and a packed tailgate before the Eagles play at O'Kelly-Riddick Stadium, and late winter brings the Hayti Heritage Film Festival. The American Tobacco Trail adds greenway miles, and city buses link campus across town.
North Carolina Central University Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
North Carolina Central University requires every new first-time freshman to live in a university residence hall for their first full year, both fall and spring semesters. You can request an exemption if you'll be 21 or older by the first day of classes, are legally married, have custody of dependent children, or commute from a parent or guardian's home within 15 miles of campus. Submit your request with documentation early.
Off-Campus Eligibility
After the first-year requirement, you're free to live off campus, and many students move into apartments and houses around Durham. NCCU partners with an off-campus marketplace that lists approved local rentals and helps with roommate matching. Durham's rental process runs the usual way, with an application, credit and background check, deposit, and often a guarantor for full-time students.
