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.
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.

Belmont’s Mail Center has installed a state-of-the-art mail locker system and acquired new mail/package tracking software. Each student will be assigned a unique “Bruin Mail Code” number that will remain for their entire residency. Mail and packages can be retrieved at the Mail Center (UPS Store) on 12th Ave S. Students must address all mail/packages with their unique mail ID# using the following format:
Student Name/Bruin Mail Code
Belmont University
1900 Belmont Blvd
Nashville, TN 37212
Most student mail/packages will be sorted into lockers upon campus arrival and you will be notified via your Belmont email. The locker area in the mail center is accessible 24/7. (Not all packages/mail will be immediately available through the locker system.) Oversize packages will need to be picked up at the service window during normal UPS Store business hours once you receive that notification. Packages/mail will be held in the lockers for 48 hours after the student receives notification and after that will be available at the pickup window. Unclaimed mail/packages after 14 days will be returned to sender.
