  SUMMER ON CAMPUS!  
For students who plan to stay on campus for the summer, UNT housing summer applications are still available. Students can apply for a specific room assignment from one of two designated summer residence halls, Clark Hall and Mozart Square. Students must be enrolled in classes during the corresponding summer housing date range and will be placed according to availability and the date range that aligns best with their class schedules. Check out the UNT housing page for more information and to apply. 

Don’t forget to purchase meal plans for the summer term! Whether you plan to live on campus, in off-campus housing or commute, there is a meal plan that’s right for you. During the summer, students have the opportunity to dine in Bruceteria and the retail restaurants on campus. Plans can be purchased at any time, but students are encouraged to purchase a meal plan as early in the term as possible to receive its full benefits. Visit the UNT dining website to see rates and hours of operation

  MEMORIAL DAY  
Monday, May 29, is Memorial Day, a national holiday to commemorate those who died while serving in the U.S. Armed Forces. Initially called Decoration Day, the original name referred to the practice of placing flowers on the graves of fallen soldiers. The university will be closed, and classes will not be held on the holiday.
