A mandatory non-refundable meal plan of $1,407.00 per semester is required for all residence hall students. The meal plan is a debit plan account that is encoded on the student Mcard. Enjoy the convenience of dining on campus and saving money doing it!  Students may use their meal plans in the University Center (UCEN). For more information, visit Dining Services.

Residence hall government dues are added to the Student Account statement as a one-time special assessment. Once billed, this amount is nonrefundable and is not prorated in any way. The amount is $20.00 and will be used to support the operation of the Hall Council in the residence hall.

Security cameras and lighting are incorporated into the design of the First Street Residence Hall. The front desk near the central entry is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week—no exceptions. To gain entry into the building, a picture-id card must be used, and then the card must be presented at the front desk.

Our policies and procedures can be found in "A Resident's Guide to Community Living".

Residents of First Street Residence Hall are able to bring cars to campus. Parking for residence hall students is located in the Mill Street Parking Deck.  Below, you will find important information regarding parking on campus found in “A Resident’s Guide to Community Living”.

Student parking permits are required for all UM-Flint parking lots. Parking permits can be obtained from Information Technology Services (ITS). It is a violation of the Statement of Student Rights and Responsibilities and UM-Flint Traffic Control Orders to participate in any fraudulent use, manufacture, or duplication of a University parking permit. Go to http://www.umflint.edu/safety/services/parkingpermit.htm for additional information on obtaining a parking permit.

State law requires registration and insurance coverage on any automobile parked in a residence hall parking lot, including those with a University-issued parking permit. The University and Housing and Residential Life assume no liability for theft or damage to a vehicle parked in a University-owned parking lot.

The facility is a four-story structure, with 310 beds for students. The total square footage will be approximately 101,163 gross square feet.

• Laundry rooms located on each floor
• Recycling centers on every floor
• A multipurpose area that can also serve as a classroom for special programming and seminars
• The entire building has wireless Internet

The residential hall features apartment-style housing options:

1. Four students in individual bedrooms sharing two bathrooms, a common living area and a kitchenette.
2. Four students sharing two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a common living area and kitchenette.
3. Two students in individual bedrooms sharing one bathroom, a common living area and a kitchenette (limited availability).

While floors are co-ed, rooms are not.

The residence hall is a smoke-free environment.

The residence hall is completely alcohol-free.

We use the residence hall year-round, including during the spring and summer months for conferences, campus, and other activities.

Banking services are located near campus.  ATM machines are located in the University Center and Pavilion.  For more information about banking, click here.

While we don't require renters insurance it is always a good option. Housing and Residential Life does not cover damaged or stolen items. Renters insurance is normally reasonably priced and a good idea. If your parents own a home you can always check the coverage on their home owners insurance to see if it covers your items in the residence hall.

Every Michigan voter who offers to vote in the polls must comply with the requirement by showing picture identification or signing an affidavit attesting that he or she is not in possession of picture identification. (See MCL 168.523 for voter identification requirement.) For information on registering and where to vote, click here.

The entire Flint community is enthusiastic and supportive of student housing at UM-Flint.
