Umstead Residence Hall

Part of our Central neighborhood, Umstead Hall is located adjacent to the new Main Campus Student Center and is near several classroom buildings, Joyner Library, engineering faculty and advising offices, dining facilities, the Pirate Tutoring Center, and administrative buildings. This location allows for ease of access to student services, getting to class, meeting with faculty or advisors, or grabbing a quick cup of coffee. As in all ECU residence halls, every room is air conditioned and includes a microwave oven and small refrigerator. Laundry facilities are available in the building along with lounges where students can study or relax with friends. Umstead Hall houses approximately 190 male and female students.

Information provided is for the most common layout for double rooms. Single rooms usually only have one bed, and may only have one set of room furniture, some single rooms may have a second set of some of the furniture if it is a temporary single for that academic year.
