University Housing

Welcome to the Early College Community!

The Early College Community is for students who want to build connections with like minded individuals who have completed their Associates Degree and are now transitioning to a four-year university. The community is for students who identify as Early College or transfer students that want the first year experience of living in a residence hall. Community will be created in Thunder Hill Residence Hall through organized and suggested activities, monthly floor meetings, and group chat participation.

This community helps incoming students make connections with a potentially like-minded group of students to help them build a network of friends and peers that will hopefully last across their time at App State. Incoming first-year students can email the contact listed below to indicate interest by May 10th, 2025, in order to be included in the Early College Community Interest process and recieve more information at a later date. Returning students have already been chosen at this time for the Community.

Contact Information: Jordan Brown brownje4@appstate.edu
