Upperclass Students Only

Overview

Belmont Commons is a townhouse complex with 30 4-bedroom, 2 1/2 bath units. Any student with 30 credit hours or two completed semesters of college is eligible to live in the Commons. It has a unique feel because of its location three blocks off the main campus on Belmont Blvd. It is also a gated community with access through driving and pedestrian gates. There are two designs for the apartments. One design has two bedrooms downstairs joined by a bathroom and two bedrooms upstairs also joined by a bathroom. The second design has all four bedrooms upstairs joined together by two shared bathrooms.
The Commons Clubhouse houses six washers and six dryers for convenient laundry access. All utilities, cable service and internet service are included in the cost for Belmont Commons.

Staff

Belmont Commons residents are supported by five Residents Assistants (RAs) who live in apartments throughout the complex. Each RA has gone through extensive training in order to be a resource to our residents. RAs create social and educational opportunities in the complex through programming and community-building efforts. The RAs are supervised by a full-time, live-in professional staff member, known as the Residence Director (RD). The RD is trained in crisis management, acts as a resource to the residents of the complex and oversees the administrative aspects of the complex such as maintenance and discipline. The RD maintains regular hours in the office located in the Clubhouse and lives within the complex. The front desk in the Clubhouse is open from 10 a.m.–10 p.m. each day to assist with any resident needs. The Clubhouse is also available for band rehearsals or other functions at the discretion of the RD.

All mail will be delivered to your residence hall lobby or apartment clubhouse for the fall semester. Please note your new Bruin Mail Code. Your Bruin Mail Code is your unique identification in the Campus Mail system and must be used on all incoming mail and packages. Your mailing address will be as follows:

Your Name
Belmont University
1900 Belmont Boulevard
Residence Hall & Room #, Bruin Mail Code
Nashville, TN 37212

If you change rooms, it is your responsibility to update your new room assignment with The UPS Store at Belmont (Room assignment change notifications will no longer be necessary after the fall semester). Complete a Change of Address form with USPS for permanent off-campus address changes only (available online at moversguide.ups.com/mgo/move-info). It is also your responsibility to notify any family, friends, creditors, banks, etc. of your change of address. For summer break and Christmas break, mail forwarding updates and changes can be made through Banner Web via your MyBelmont portal.

All mail will generally be placed in your mailbox by 4 p.m. each day, Monday through Friday (there is no mail delivery on Saturday, Sunday or federal holidays). If you receive a package, you will be notified via email. All packages can be picked up at the Belmont UPS Store located on the corner of 12th Ave. South and Acklen Ave.

Students may have some of their belongings shipped to their campus address prior to their arrival. We ask that packages arrive no earlier than a week before move-in due to our limited storage space. Storage fees may occur for incoming packages that arrive earlier than a week before move-in.

If you need summer storage, please visit www.premiercollegestorage.com for more information. If you have any questions about campus mail, please contact the Belmont UPS Store at 615.460.6638.
