Residency Requirements
Housing policy stipulates that all unmarried, first and second-year students who are under the age of 21 at the time of enrollment and who do not live with parent(s) or legal guardian(s) within 50 mile radius of the University, are required to live in campus housing for the fall and spring semesters. The only exceptions to the preceding requirement are for those students who are non-traditional students, veterans of military service, and transfer students who have been out of high school one year or more. In order to be exempt, the student must obtain approval from the Director of Residence Life and Housing. Incoming first-year students who desire a residency waiver, and live with parent(s) or legal guardian(s) within a 50-mile radius of the University requirement, must complete the Change of Status. After a student has lived on campus their first and second year, they may choose to live off campus, typically their junior year.
Transfer Students are not considered first-year students. Transfer students are housed on a space availability basis.
To be eligible to reside in campus housing, the student must be enrolled in full-time academic course work at the start of the semester (minimum of 12 semester hours). Exceptions must be approved by the Director of Residence Life and Housing. If the student’s enrollment status changes to part-time status, the University has the right, but not the obligation, to terminate the housing agreement.
On campus housing for students who are less than seventeen years old is subject to approval. Limestone University does not provide family housing for students.
