RESIDENTIAL LIFE

Students participating in the Burnett Honors College Summer Institute will be given the opportunity to experience college life by living in Flagler Hall on UCF’s main campus. This resident hall is comprised of two-room suites with a shared bathroom. Two students reside in each room. Each room is equipped with linens, towels, a pillow, beds, desks, dressers, and closet space. If you need additional pillows, padding for your mattress, or additional linens, please remember to pack them with you. Rooms have phone lines with free local calling, but you will need to bring your own phone. In each cluster of rooms there is a common area; if students would like, they are free to bring video games, televisions (with cable cord), radios, etc., but these items are brought at the owners’ risk. The Institute will NOT be responsible for any theft of personal belongings. There is also a communal meeting room with a large screen TV, laundry facilities, and a vending machine room for all residential halls on campus.

Classrooms, the library, dining facilities, the Student Union, the Recreation and Wellness Center, and the Burnett Honors College are all within easy walking distance. All buildings have air conditioning, including the residence halls. Additionally, every cluster of rooms, or "pod," will have a Resident Assistant in order to provide after-hours assistance to the students. The Resident Assistant is responsible for enforcing curfews, handling minor residential problems, serving as a point of contact for students, and leading nightly activities. The students are assigned to grade-alike, gender-alike groups that live in a dormitory cluster under the supervision of their Resident Assistant.
