Residence Halls

South Plains College provides opportunities for full-time students to live on the Levelland Campus. The College maintains six residence halls for men, five residence halls for women and Smallwood Apartments for men and women. SPC provides on-campus living accommodations for 774 students.

All residence halls are furnished and air-conditioned, providing a comfortable living environment. Most residence halls feature a central lobby where residents may meet with friends to enjoy television, play games, or participate in other activities. Residence halls also feature vending machines and access to on-campus laundry facilities. Each hall or apartment has Internet capability. The use of security cameras and card access is incorporated into selected residential facilities to provide safety and security for our on-campus residents.

Food services for students living in residence halls is provided in the Texan Hall, the college dining facility. Texan Hall is located in the Student Center. Meals are prepared by a staff of professional cooks under the management of Great Western Dining Service, Inc.

College residence halls and Texan Hall are closed during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Break. The Texan Hall is closed during the summer.

The residence hall program is supervised by the Student Housing Office under the guidance of the Dean and Associate Dean of Students. The college strives to provide an atmosphere in its residence halls that is conducive to the educational purpose and mission of the college. Residence hall personnel also realize that in addition to classroom knowledge, a student may learn a great deal about group living and the social skills required to cooperatively interact with others. Student housing rules and regulations are enforced to ensure a proper setting for learning and, at the same time, to help residents develop a sense of self-responsibility.

Student housing is available on the Levelland Campus for students enrolled in a minimum course load of 12 semester hours. All students requesting on-campus housing are required to submit an application for housing and a required deposit. Acceptance is contingent upon availability and approval of the Associate Dean of Students.

To apply for campus housing, students must submit the following items:

• Application for Housing Form;
• $100 Deposit;

Application materials can be obtained online at:http://www.southplainscollege.edu/campuslife/residencehalls/index.php.

Residence Hall assignments for the fall semester are made before June 15 of each year. Students will receive their assignments via email to their SPC email account. Once rooms are assigned the charges for housing will be added to the student’s account.

Students residing on-campus are under contract with South Plains College. This contract is an agreement to remain in student housing for the balance of the school year, beginning with the move in date for the term. A $100 deposit is required to retain a room reservation. The Application for Housing and the $100 deposit must be on file before a room is assigned. Those who have signed a contract and decide not to enroll in this institution must cancel their contract before the dates indicated below:

ALL UNCLAIMED SPACES IN STUDENT HOUSING WILL BE DECLARED VACANT AT 8:00 A.M. ON THE FIRST DAY OF CLASSES, AND THE ROOM DEPOSIT FORFEITED UNLESS PRIOR APPROVAL HAS BEEN OBTAINED FROM THE HOUSING OFFICE.

A student’s withdrawal from housing during the course of a semester constitutes a breach of contract. Should this occur for reasons other than illness or involuntary withdrawal from college, the student will forfeit the deposit. Students involuntarily withdrawing will be refunded room and board prorated on the date of withdrawal and the deposit less damages.

All students who reside in residence halls obtain room and meals in a package plan for a unit price. Students residing in the Smallwood Apartments are charged only for apartment rent with utilities furnished. Meal plans are available to Smallwood Apartment residents upon request in the housing office. Students not living in the residence halls may purchase meal plans through Great Western Dining in the Texan Hall. Room and meal charges for residence halls are due at the time of registration.
