The University of New Brunswick (UNB) residence team is committed to our mission of providing a supportive living environment for UNB students choosing to live in residence. From our residence staff to our live-in proctors, someone is always available to offer help and support.

Incoming mail is delivered to your mailbox Monday through Friday. Parcels can be picked up at the Residence Administration Building (20 Bailey Drive). When your parcel arrives, you will receive an email notification.

Bring your UNB student photo I.D. card with you, only the student that the parcel is addressed to can collect it. We will hold parcels for a two-week period, after which we will return to the sender.

If you live in one of our traditional-style residences, a meal plan is required. See the rates & fees to view current plan options and pricing. 

If you live in one of our suite-style or apartment-style residences, you may purchase one of several dining plan options from our campus dining partner, Chartwells.

We have two dining halls on campus.

• McConnell Hall offers unlimited dining with multiple food stations and freshly prepared foods. McConnell Hall also offers the convenience of Debit, Visa and MasterCard.
• Our additional dining hall is located in the Dunn-Kidd-Tibbits Hall.

Each residence building has an in-house laundry room. To use the washers and dryers, all you need is your UNB UCard. No more coins!

Janitorial services are provided for the common areas of all residence buildings, students are responsible for keeping their own rooms clean.

Our team thoroughly inspects and cleans all rooms prior to your arrival. Following check-in or a room move, you have 48 hours to report any concerns with the condition of your room and submit them to the Residence Administration front desk. This will create a report regarding the condition of your accommodation. If you do not report any concerns, it will be assumed that your room, unit or suite is clean and in good condition. Please refer to the Residence Contract for more details.

For your safety and security, residences are locked 24/7. Guests can request entry by contacting a friend who lives in the building.

UNB Security & Traffic monitor residences and provide 24/7 service. We work closely with security staff that provide regular internal and external patrols of our residence buildings.

If you are planning to bring your car to campus you must register with UNB Security & Traffic and purchase a parking pass. Residence students must park their vehicles in the designated parking areas according to the official campus parking map. Please review UNB Security & Traffic’s parking rates and regulations before purchasing your parking pass.

Internet services in the UNB Fredericton residences are now provided by Rogers Communications.

Rogers Internet offers speeds with 500 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload service. A wireless modem is included, with secure wi-fi capability per access in each residence room. The white modem in your room has a sticker with a network name printed on it (EasyConnectXXXXX). You can connect to this network or scan the QR code on the modem to start the EasyConnect software and configure your personal wireless network. If needed you can do a hardware reset on the back of the modem to return the modem to factory defaults and restart the EasyConnect process. A Wired connection requires only a network cable to be plugged into the port on the modem.
