All first year students are required to live on campus.

Students may qualify for an exemption to this policy if they:

  • are living with a parent or guardian at their primary residence within a 35 mile radius of campus.
  • are enrolled in 9 or fewer credit hours during both the fall and spring semesters.
  • have custody of a child.
  • are married.
  • have extenuating circumstances such as a severe medical condition, financial hardship, or family consideration.

For the 2009-2010 academic year, a first year student is defined as an individual who received a high school diploma in spring 2009 or later. For the 2010-2011 academic year, a first year student is defined as an individual who received a high school diploma in spring 2010 or later. PSEO or Advanced Placement credits are not considered when determining first year status.
