Resident Commuters

Students who earn at least 85 credits by the end of Fall 2019 may apply to live off-campus for the 2020-2021 academic year. Students interested in applying for off-campus housing approval must complete all of the following:

• Pay their housing deposit and complete their housing contract for the 2020-2021 academic year.
• Complete an off-campus application (online only).
• Be in good academic standing.
• Be in good student conduct standing, and have no overdue sanctions.
• Complete an online educational program regarding off-campus living and expectations.

We strongly discourage students from signing leases off campus until they receive approval for release from campus housing. Students who sign a lease and do not receive approval will not be released from the College Residence Requirement.

Usually, there are more students who apply and are eligible than will be released.  Being released is not guaranteed. As the number of new and current residents changes every year, our office cannot make this determination ahead of time.

No.  The application will only be available to students who have successfully earned the specified number of credits by the end of the Fall semester.  You will continue through the on campus room selection/lottery process.

Applications may not be submitted after the deadline and will not be accepted as students are expected to meet all published deadlines.  Information regarding the process and all deadlines are emailed to all current on-campus students, posted on residence hall bulletin boards, and are shared during the housing information sessions.
