Rent is $773 per month for most residents. However, a limited number of units with an alternative floor plan are available at up to $876 per month for those who require special accommodations. If you are assigned to one of these units, you will be notified in advance. Rent includes utilities, WiFi and furniture.

Although housing is eligible to be covered by financial aid, the amount of coverage is best determined by speaking to a financial aid specialist. Any student receiving financial aid may utilize funds to pay for the cost of housing. (It is important to note that the financial aid process is separate from the student housing process and that each applicant’s financial aid is different).

ABOUT FINANCIAL AID

Yes, RCCD students living in UCR Housing must meet all tuberculosis (TB) and immunization requirements, following the same policy as UCR students. 

View Immunization Requirements

All requirements must be completed PRIOR to move in. 

Students can go to MedProctor.com, create a FREE unique and secure online account. Once registered, complete their TB Risk Assessment Questionnaire and upload vaccine records and any additional documents. 

• Information and form completion for possible Medical or Religious exemptions are also available inside your MedProctor account portal. 
• Messages will be received directly from MedProctor.com and/or RCC Health Services for missing or incomplete items. 
• For more details see the Student How-To Instructions. 

If you’re not sure where your immunization records are, don’t worry — there are several places you can check:

• Previous Healthcare Providers: Contact any doctors, clinics, or public health departments you visited, including childhood doctors. If a practice closed or changed hands, the records might be stored by a medical records company (you may need to pay a small fee to access them).
• Home: Search through old papers, baby books, school or camp forms. If you’re an adult, your parents might still have your childhood records.
• State or Local Immunization Registry IISIS): Many states and cities have vaccine registries. They might not have all records, but it’s a good place to start. Find contact information at:
  • CDC - www.cdc.gov/vaccines/programs/iis/contacts-locate-records.html.
  • California Registry - https://myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov/
• Schools or Colleges: Contact any schools, colleges, or other post-secondary institutions you attended.
• Previous Employers: Some jobs, especially in Healthcare or the military, may have copies of your immunization history.

If You Can't Find Your Records:

If records are lost, you have options! Please discuss with your own Healthcare Provider or contact Norco College Student Health Services at (951) 372-7046 or Email Norco College Student Health Services

Resident Assistants (RAs) are students who live in the community and are assigned a group of student residents. They help improve the resident experience and handle emergency and safety protocols.

Pets are not permitted, except fish in an aquarium with a maximum size of 10 gallons. The maximum allowable aquarium gallons per apartment is 40 gallons. Breach of this provision will result in a non-negotiable fee for fumigation services in addition to any appropriate cleaning or repair charges deemed necessary. Keeping a pet is grounds for immediate eviction. Pet prohibitions apply to all mammals, reptiles, birds, and insects, owned or visiting, with the exception of assistance animals approved by RCC and UCR Housing.  

Assistance animals, including Service and Emotional Support animals must be registered with RCC-DRC and the ability of UCR Housing to accommodate the animal must be confirmed by UCR Housing prior to bringing any such animal into the community.
