LOCAL DIRECTIONS: As you come out of Sylva, approximately 1 mile past Smoky Mountain High School, Ingles Supermarket, and Burger King, look for signs placed to split traffic on NC 107 at NC 1002 (Old Cullowhee Road) just outside of Sylva. Traffic moving to Upper Campus will turn left at the stoplight onto the Old Cullowhee Road. Traffic moving to Lower Campus will remain on NC 107.

Reserved rooms not claimed by 5:00 pm on Monday, August 23, 2010 will be cancelled unless the Department of Residential Living has been notified at (828) 227-7303.
We sincerely hope that these arrangements will help make this a great day! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Residential Living office at (828)227-7303. Enjoy the rest of your summer!
