First Year Parking Pass

First-year residential students are not permitted to have a vehicle on campus. However, our office may grant exceptions for unique circumstances. Students can request an exemption request based on specific needs, such as military or contracted service responsibilities, off-campus academic or employment commitments, or recurring medical appointments.

Please note that approval is also contingent on the availability of parking passes. Students approved to have a vehicle will need to register with NU Public Safety.

Early Arrival to Campus Request Form

The Early Arrival to Campus Request Form is designed for students who need to arrive on campus before the start of the academic term. Eligible reasons for early arrival may include academic commitments, employment obligations, military or government contracted service responsibilities, and medical appointments.

Students seeking approval for early arrival must complete and submit this form, and provide any supporting documentation. The Dean of Students' office will review each request. Please note that submitting this form does not guarantee approval, and additional fees may apply for early housing accommodations.

Students will be notified of the decision via email.

Late Arrival Form

This form must be completed by any student anticipating a late arrival to campus at the start of an academic term due to circumstances outside of their control. Pending approval by our office, faculty will be notified of the student's late arrival to prevent being dropped from courses for nonattendance.

Remote Study/Excused Absence Form

Excused Absence: Intended for students who need to be absent from classes for more than two days due to family emergencies or medical reasons.

Remote Study: Students can request permission to continue their studies remotely. Please note Norwich is a residential campus, meaning approvals will not be granted except for rare cases with very unusual circumstances.
