VIII. Patron Addendum

Addendum for Patrons of Housing & Dining (not applicable to UNI students, faculty or staff members, or visiting scholars/researchers).

The University of Northern Iowa has partnership agreements with Hawkeye Community (HCC) and Allen College (Allen) that allows students taking classes at those institutions to contract to live on campus with UHD. These students are referred to as Patrons of UHD (Patrons).
Patrons live in university housing along with UNI students. The goal of these partnership programs is to assist and support students by providing a strong living and learning environment. With this goal in mind, the following expectations have been developed:
1. Enrolling in Classes: Patrons must be enrolled as full-time students. Full-time is defined as being enrolled and completing a minimum of nine (9) credit hours each semester during the academic year at their respective institutions.
2. Course Registration Verification: A list of Patrons will be sent to the partner institution(s) at the beginning of each semester to verify full-time enrollment. Patrons not meeting full-time enrollment status are subject to cancellation of their Housing & Dining contract.
3. Flexible Patron Status: Students may transfer enrollment between UNI and HCC or Allen without interruption of their Housing & Dining contract. Students must notify UHD immediately upon changing this enrollment status. If attending HCC or Allen, an information release form must be completed in order for the contract to remain active and the Patron to be allowed to continue living in campus housing.
4. Financial Deadline: Fee payments at UNI, HCC and Allen are independent of each other. Patrons pay tuition and fees at their respective institution and pay housing and meal plan fees at UNI. Payment of housing and meal plan fees are required as stated in the university U-Bill Terms and Conditions. Should a Patron incur a past due balance at UNI, that Patron’s housing and dining contract is subject to cancellation and financial penalty. Payment plans may be arranged through the UNI Student Accounts Office, as the financial aid disbursement schedule at HCC and Allen may differ from UNI’s.
5. Patrons do not pay all fees billed to UNI students. As such, Patrons are not afforded access to the same services as UNI students. Patrons do not have access to the UNI Student Health Clinic, but may request and pay fees for services such as Wellness and Recreation Center. Refer to the UHD website for full details.
6. Financial Assistance: Patrons are considered either HCC or Allen students for financial aid purposes. Financial aid is processed through the institution where the Patron is enrolled for classes. Patrons applying for financial aid through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) should enter either the HCC or Allen school code on the FAFSA, as applicable. The Patron should also select the on campus housing option on the FAFSA if they are requesting aid for housing and dining. Financial aid is disbursed to first pay the bill at the institution where the Patron is enrolled. Remaining funds are disbursed directly to the Patron, which the Patron may use to pay their bill at UNI. UNI accepts payment by check, e-check, money order, cashier’s check, cash or credit card at the Student Accounts Office in Gilchrist Hall.
7. Behavioral expectations:
  1. Patrons living in campus housing are expected to attend house meetings and activities throughout the year.
  2. Patrons living in campus housing are expected to maintain a good disciplinary record at both the institution where they are enrolled and UNI. Incidents occurring due to failure to follow UNI policies and procedures will be handled through the UNI conduct system.
  3. Failure to comply with conduct sanctions may result in cancellation of the Housing & Dining contract, removal from campus housing, and/or financial penalty.
8. Contact information requirement: Patrons are expected to maintain up to date contact information with UHD.
9. Academic calendars: The HCC and Allen academic year calendars generally coincide with the UNI calendar. When these calendars do not coincide, Patrons must request and be granted, from UHD, an exception to stay before or after the regular UNI contract dates at a rate determined by UHD.
10. Terms and conditions: All contract terms and conditions apply, including cancellation dates and contract buyout fees; including when a student enrolls at either HCC or Allen, and/or returns to UNI.
11. Patrons are eligible in their first semester of living in UNI’s campus housing to enroll in the Live 2 Succeed program. All terms and conditions related to the Live 2 Succeed program remain in effect.

Non-discrimination Statement
The University of Northern Iowa does not discriminate in employment or education. Additional information is available on the UNI website. Furthermore, UHD will not discriminate in room and/or hall assignments, room changes, or other processes involving housing assignments on the basis of any stated identities within university policies.
