Summer Conference Housing

Need the perfect overnight accommodations in Charlotte, NC for your camp or conference during the summer months? UNC Charlotte’s Housing and Residence Life has partnered with the office of Conferences, Reservations and Event Services (CRES) to offer safe, convenient, and affordable housing for every type of group - from student/family orientation, to adult conferences and youth camps. Groups are housed throughout our impressive residence halls which include traditional tower styles, suites, and apartments.

Please contact hrlconferences@uncc.edu if you have any questions or concerns.

Summer camp/conference groups with overnight accommodations in our residence halls will have a professional full-time, Housing staff member and a team of student employees to manage the residential component of their event. Camp/conference groups will primarily interact with CHAs, which are student employees specifically trained in providing exceptional customer service.

Conference Housing Assistants (CHAs) are responsible for the following:

  • Group check-in and check-outs
  • Assisting with housing concerns and lock-outs
  • Linen distribution and room set-ups
  • 24hr Conference Housing Desk coverage

A 24hr Summer Housing Desk operates throughout the summer to assist conference and orientation participants. Please visit or call the 24hr Summer Housing Desk if you need assistance or are locked out. 

The Summer 2023 desk will be at Belk Hall: 704-687-5576

  • Youth participants under 18 must be escorted by a group chaperone at all times.
  • Building access and bedroom keys are given to overnight participants only. Non-residential participants within your group will not be given access to the building.
  • Lost/stolen keys and conference cards should be reported to Housing staff immediately. Groups may be held financially responsible for costs associated with lock changes and any other damage to property. Documentation will be provided in such situations.
  • Personal belongings left by conference participants that are removed by Housing staff may be stored or treated as abandoned property and disposed of accordingly.
