Student Life
Residence Halls
Howard Payne University maintains residence halls as a part of the total educational
experience available to students. They provide a supportive framework for
intellectual and social growth and development effectively extending learning
beyond the classroom. For this reason students are required to live in the residence
halls for 6 semesters or until they are 22 years old. All students living in residence
halls must purchase a resident meal plan.
All students applying for admission to University housing must forward to the
Office of Student Life a deposit of $100.00 (along with room application) which
will be held as security for damages. If the room deposit is not requested within
one year of vacating University housing, the deposit will be forfeited into a general
scholarship account. Any unused portion will be refunded on written request within
one month after properly checking out of the residence hall. In no case will any of
the deposit be refunded until the student has cleared all financial obligations to the
University and requested the deposit.
Transfer students who transfer in hours from other institutions will receive one
(1) semester of on-campus living credit for every fifteen (15) hours transferred into
HPU. Questions about this should be directed to the Office of Student Life.
Applications for permission to live off campus can be picked up from the
Office of Student Life. Without off-campus approval students are required to
live in the residence halls and purchase a meal plan to eat in the dining hall.
Students who live on campus contract for room and board in the Howard Payne
University residence halls and assume responsibility for the payment thereof at the
rates established by the University. Any resident who moves from a hall without
official permission is held financially responsible for the full financial term agreed
upon between the resident and the University.
All other policies and procedures pertaining to housing are found in the HPU
Student Handbook.
Food Service
The food service arrangements, like those for housing, are a part of the overall
educational plan of the University with efforts made to help students develop
wholesome eating habits. The menu planning and meal services are provided by
Marriott Food Services. Resident students on a meal plan may enjoy service from
7:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. daily in the cafeteria. Fambrough's, a restaurant located
upstairs in the Mabee University Center, is open late at night for students to eat,
play games, and visit with friends. ALL RESIDENCE HALL STUDENTS WILL
BE CHARGED FOR ROOM AND MEALS AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION.
MEALS NOT EATEN BY THE STUDENT DURING THE CURRENT SEMESTER
ARE FORFEITED WITH NO REFUND.
Requests for special diet may be submitted in writing to the Associate Dean of
Students prior to each semester for approval. A physician's recommendation must61
