We are committed to keeping our top-quality Christian liberal arts education affordable for our students. Our tuition and fees are in line with or lower than similar colleges, and we offer a comprehensive range of scholarships, grants, loans, and other assistance based on financial need, exceptional academic ability, and special talents.
Unfortunately, at this time, the completion date for the West Campus Commons cannot be determined. Since the project was launched, more than 70 work days have been lost due to weather, as well as other situations beyond our control. With a project of this magnitude, it is reasonable to think there likely will be other construction days lost between now and the start of the Fall 2024 academic year.
To compensate for that possibility, both a Temporary Housing Assignment as well as a West Campus Housing Assignment for the fall have been developed. In recent days it has become more likely West Campus Commons should come online shortly after the start of semester, but will not be available when classes starts. Thus, the need for an interim Temporary Housing Assignment listing. Both selections need to be completed.
Work continues and as fall draws near, we can apply more definite timelines to the conclusion of construction and a date when students can move into the new facility. We are disappointed but remain excited about the future of residence life at Carson-Newman and believe our students will be as well. We are very grateful for your understanding and patience.
