Request to Live Off Campus
Deadline for Fall 2009: April 1, 2009
To request to live in non-university housing, click on Forms and Documents, complete the appropriate form and submit it to the Office of Residence Life. Please keep in mind that all full-time (12 credit hours) students, with exception to married students or students living with parents, grandparents, or siblings, are required to live in University housing, which includes residence halls, apartments, and fraternity and sorority houses.
In accordance with the University Housing Policy (as stated in the Student Handbook, page 25) at least one of the following criteria must be met in order for a student to move out of the residence halls at the beginning of an academic year:
- 135 quarter hours (senior status)
- 9 quarters in the residence halls or apartments
- 23 years of age
- Commuting from the permanent residence of a parent, grandparent or sibling, within a 30-mile drive of campus
- An earned undergraduate degree
- Served in the armed forces and qualified for veterans' benefits
- Married
If you do not qualify for any of the above criteria, you are not eligible to live off campus.
Once you submit the form, it will be reviewed and you will be contacted by e-mail or a letter regarding your status.
