New Students- Once you have been accepted to ECU, Undergraduates will receive an admittance packet and a Student Guide later in the spring. If you do not receive your Student Guide in a timely manner, you can contact ECU Admissions at 252.328.6131, or if you have questions about the Campus Living information simply call the Campus Living Office at 252.328.4663 or e-mail us at housing@ecu.edu.
You will also receive your ECU e-mail account and password in the mail. This account and password will give you access to the PiratePort site for the contracting process.
The contracting process for new students is online and is available after paying the new student enrollment deposit. The next business day after an enrollment deposit is paid- an link is activated for incoming students logging onto their Pirate Port account – pirateport.ecu.edu/portal . Once logged into Pirate Port, select Tools at the top of the page, under the Student Affairs heading select Campus Living – Housing. New students will pay by credit card the $100 application fee and the $100 Advanced Room Fee (credited towards your Spring room charges)- $200 total to submit a contract to reserve a space.
