Can freshmen live off campus?
All unmarried undergraduate students who have completed fewer than 30 semester hours of university work (advanced placement hours not included) and who enroll for 12 or more semester hours are required to reside in university-operated residence halls. Exceptions may be made for students who live with parents, grandparents or a married sibling. Other exceptions may be made in the cases of older students, such as veterans or previously married students; students with medical disabilities; or students with such extreme financial hardship that on-campus housing would be unfeasible. If you would like to be considered for exemption to the Housing Policy, apply for exemption with the housing department before signing a housing contract.
