Residential Campus Information
Housing Requirements for Undergraduate Students
½ûÂþÌìÌà is a residential college, meaning undergraduate students are required to live on-campus for four-years/eight semesters of their undergraduate experience. The College views residential life as an important part of a student‘s personal growth.Ìý Exceptions to the housing requirement include students 25 years of age or older, students with dependents or who are married, students granted an accommodation through the Americans with Disabilities Act (as approved by Student Disability Services), or students who commute from their permanent residence where they live with family. Approved and recognized study abroad programs will count toward a student's eight semesters.
We are not able to provide housing for Domestic Non-Degree Seeking Students, SGPS Students, undergraduate students taking less than 12 credits, and students in Master's/Doctoral programs.Ìý
Housing for Students in 4+1, 3+2 or similar programs
Students who begin their undergraduate career with ½ûÂþÌìÌà and will continue through a special option, such as a 4+1 or 3+2, can remain in their housing the spring semester following their December graduation (for those programs with a December graduation). Students in these programs will no longer be eligible for on-campus housing starting the fall semester after their undergraduate graduation.
Students in the PA program, which begins in July, can request summer housing through Special Events and Summer Programs (SESP). Please note that this may not be the same housing assignment for the following fall semester, rates and meal plan requirements are different in the summer than during the academic year, which your housing agreement covers.Ìý
Housing Agreement
Undergraduate students entering ½ûÂþÌìÌà must sign aÌý CollegeÌýHousing AgreementÌý to reserve a room in one of our residential communities. This agreement reserves space for the student and outlines the responsibilities of both the College and the student to safeguard the rights of all residents. The agreement is for room space without regard to designated residential facilities or specific rooms.Ìý
A student may not reserve housing without signing a Housing Agreement or, in the case of a returning student, without registering for the following semester.
Housing agreements are binding throughout a student’s undergraduate enrollment at ½ûÂþÌìÌÃ.
Admitted students will receive access to their housing agreement upon deposit through their applicant portal. Returning students may request their agreement by emailing reslife@etown.edu.Ìý
