University Housing Policies & Procedures
It is the intent, goal, and responsibility of the department of Housing & Residence Life to provide a safe, secure, and educational community and residential experience for all students living on-campus. The Housing & Residence Life Policies and Procedures help residents understand and navigate the policies, procedures and regulations specific to students of the residential community.
These policies are in addition to or in conjunction with the policies stipulated in the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo and Hawaiʻi Community College Student Conduct Codes. Any violation of any University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo policies can result in disciplinary sanctions and jeopardize the status of a student at the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo/Hawaiʻi Community College, as well as the privilege of being part of the residential community living on-campus.
University Housing Policies and Procedures constitute a general guideline for residents set forth by the Department of Housing & Residence Life. Other issues may arise that will be dealt with on an individual basis. It is a resident’s responsibility to read, learn, and understand the University’s Student Conduct Code and Housing & Residence Life policies and procedures.
If residents are unsure of and/or require clarification about a policy or procedure, they should contact their Community Resident Assistant (CRA) or a member of the Housing & Residence Life Staff.
