College Housing F.A.Q.
Housing contracts are for the full academic year. (Fall and winter semesters)
Yes. Students can submit a housing application in fall semester to be placed on the housing waitlist. As vacancies open, we will fill vacancies and charge pro-rated amounts for mid-semester placements.
All housing residents can receive one free parking permit. Students may park in any of the 25 parking spots at the Huron dorm or in the larger city parking lot at the Bard dorm directly across the street. Parking in the Bank building dorms is located at the far parking lot by the dumpster for residents. The parking lot closest to the building is for employees only. For overflow parking, we encourage residents to use any of the surrounding 24-hour free city lots located around the building. Permanent parking passes can be picked up from the front desk by showing the following:
· Student ID
· Valid driver’s license
· Vehicle registration information
· Proof of insurance
Housing does not provide guest parking – please use the Port Huron city lots for visitor parking.
You can request a roommate preference on our housing application. Housing will only honor mutual roommate requests.
- You must provide name and contact information for your requested roommate on your application.
- Your requested roommate also must request you as their roommate.
Once we receive your application, we will try to pair you with your requested suitemate. These requests are not guaranteed.
Yes, the residence hall is co-ed, but men and women do not share rooms. For gender-inclusive living accommodations, please contact College Housing.
Yes, we do have ADA-accessible rooms available on a first-come, first-serve basis. Applicants will need to register with disability services at SC4 and submit a housing application. Some applicants have special needs that may warrant a single room, or possibly a room on the bottom floor. The same process applies to these special requests. We will honor all recommendations made as long as we have the space available.
Contracts must be canceled in writing via email from the applicant to housing@sc4.edu. Cancellations must be received before the first day of check-in and prior to July 15 to cancel for free. A cancellation fee of $500 dollars will be applied to the student account for any cancellations that occur between July 1 and the move-in date.
Each dorm building has trained resident assistants living in them. In addition to that we have 24-hour security patrolling the whole campus.
The entrance to the residence halls requires an app directly used by the student’s phone and email, and given access by only the housing managers to get in. If a student does not have a phone, then a physical key will be used. All doors are locked directly after they are closed. Campus security and residential staff professionals are available and around 24/7.
No, students (regardless of age) are not permitted to smoke or drink in their rooms, inside the housing complex, or on housing and campus property.
St. Clair County Community College Housing maintains a healthy and safe living environment for its residents. As part of this commitment, the college has established a substance-free living area for all of its residents. The College Housing Drug Screening Assessment Policy outlines the process for addressing infractions.
