College students at North Carolina State University have been ordered to move out of on-campus housing by September 6th. Seven new COVID-19 clusters were identified involving NCSU students in both on and off-campus housing. Students will have to make an appointment to move out starting today (Thursday 8/27) and Sunday, September 6th in order to follow proper social distancing guidelines. These students will receive prorated funds for their fall semester housing and dining. The students can apply for a waiver to stay in the residence halls if they have special circumstances.

Chancellor Randy Woodson stated, “We’re not where we want to be today, but we’re hoping that by reducing our on-campus population, we can keep our community safe and slow the spread of this relentless virus. The vital work of the university will continue to educate, to conduct groundbreaking research, and to contribute to our world in meaningful ways.”
