About Vernon College Student Housing

There are two student housing facilities at Vernon College, the Main Dorm and Athletic Dorm. Each room is shared by two students and are built in a suite arrangement; two rooms share a 
shower and other bathroom facilities. Each room is furnished with a large mirror, a small storage cabinet 
and lavatory, two Twin XL size beds, a dresser, two desks and chairs, two 
closets, and Internet access. The Student Residence Center (SRC) has individually controlled air conditioning and heating.

In addition to the low cost, living in student housing affords other advantages such as the “rounding out” 
of college life found only by living on campus and the availability of the college’s recreational facilities. Food service (cafeteria/snack bar) is available in the Colley Student Center (Monday through Friday). 

Rooms are available for students who have disabilities. 

 

Proof of Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Requirement:

Effective January 1, 2014, all first-time college students and returning students under the age of 22 must be immunized against bacterial meningitis, according to the Jamie Schanbaum and Nicolis Williams Act.

All incoming freshmen, transfer students and returning students, following a break in enrollment of at least one fall or spring semester, will be required to show proof of immunization against bacterial meningitis.

Documentation showing that the student has received the immunization within the last five years must be provided at least 10 days prior to the first day of the semester in order to register for classes. Students must submit one of the following in order to be cleared for registration:

• the signature or stamp of a physician (or his/her designee) or public health personnel on a form that shows the month, day and year the vaccination dose or booster was administered 
• an official immunization record generated from a state or local health authority 
• an official high school or college transcript that includes documentation of immunization provided by school officials (including records from other states)
  

After submitting proof of immunization, there will be a waiting period to allow for the processing of immunization information before a student will be cleared for registration.

**VC students who are required to have the vaccination will not be allowed to register until they provide proof of immunization to the Office of Admissions and Records.**

If an Installment Plan Is Needed:

Vernon College is proud to offer FACTS as a convenient budget plan for tuition, fees, and housing (room and board). The cost to enroll in your interest free payment plan is a $30.00 nonrefundable enrollment fee. Through FACTS, you may use the Automatic Bank Payment (ACH) or the Credit Card Option to make payments.
