Who Can Live Off Campus?

A large part of the educational experience at a residential college is life on campus. For this reason, all freshman must live on campus unless they have received prior approval from the Office of Admissions. Transfer students who have completed less than 24 semester hours of credit are also required to live on campus, unless otherwise approved by the Office of Admissions.
