Unless otherwise excused, all freshman full-time, unmarried, undergraduate students on the uptown campus, who do not live with their parents or guardians, are required to live in university residence halls as long as space is available.

The terms and conditions of the residence hall agreement or the apartment lease govern residence in the university's residence halls and apartments.
