Housing Standards
Navarro College Residence Life/Housing is committed to promoting positive behavior and expects others to behave in ways that are demonstrated by our community. We believe that we are individually and collectively responsible for our behavior and fully accountable for our actions. We must take initiative and responsibility for our own learning and awareness of the differences that exist in our community and avoid all actions that can negatively impact others. We are committed to these principles that are an integral part of our purpose, values and daily activities.
Please read the list of policies and procedures. If you have any questions about the following policies, please feel free to contact the Residence Life/Housing Office and visit with a professional staff member.
