University Residency Requirement Policy
Point Park University believes there is significant educational value from the experience offered to students living in our residence halls. In keeping with this belief, all full-time, first-year students are required to live on campus, providing that space is available. (University housing is based on first-come, first-served.) This policy is reviewed annually and adjusted in order to best meet the needs of the campus and community at large.
First-year students can be released from this residency requirement if they fall into one of the following exceptions: 1) student lives with a parent/guardian within a 30-mile radius of campus; 2) student is 21 years old when initiating admittance; 3) student is married and/or has a dependent family member who is living with them; and/or 4) student is a military veteran who has actively served prior to admission to the University.
Students who fit into one of the above categories or who feel they have a unique and unanticipated situation should contact the Office of Student Life at studentlife@pointpark.edu to request the appropriate exception form.
