Value of On-Campus Liv ingU N C W H O U S I N G M A S T E R P L A N U P D A T E

National studies consistently find that living on campus has significant impact on academic performance

– GPA impact = estimated ½ letter grade (Center for Applied Economics & Policy Research)

– 11% higher 4-year graduation rates (Levin & Clowes)

The UNCW residential experience is delivering high value in terms of student success and retention

– Higher retention rate for freshmen who lived on campus– Faster and higher rates of graduation for sophomores who lived

on campus– Rated in the top 6% nationally (of 295 institutions) for positively

impacting students’ academic performance (Educational Benchmarking, Inc., 2016)

– Also rated in the top 6% nationally for housing’s impact on decision to return to the university (EBI, 2016)

Vis ion Al ignmentK E Y F I N D I N G S R E V I E W

Increase the supply of campus housing to support UNCW’s Strategic Plan

– Current housing deficit = 995 beds– Fall 2021 deficit = approximately 2,300 beds

Comprehensively elevate the residential experience– Remove or substantially reinvest in obsolete / vision misaligned halls – Reclaim common areas and improve outdoor spaces

Maximize impact by creating functional communities– Consider “village” concepts to deepen connections to campus and peers

Identify funding strategy that reconciles housing vision with UNCW’s financial realities

– Leverage the strength of Housing’s financial position – Understand impact of delivery structures on master plan implementation

Publ ic -Pr ivate Par tnerships (P3)D E L I V E R Y S T R U C T U R E S

The project scale (2,000) beds and market profile will draw strong interest from the P3 market.

UNCW’s desired risk profile fits certain structures better than others. The most desirable structures may require more revenue to be financially

feasible. UNCW’s existing housing system will maintain a stable financial position. The timing for Board of Governors approval provides UNCW an

opportunity to test the P3 market without impacting the project schedule.
