ANSWERS TO SOME COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS...

Who is required to live on campus?

Plymouth State University policy states that all students are required to live on campus if space is available.  

For the 2009-10 academic year, students who will be 20 by September 1, 2009 or have earned 30 or more credits by the end of Winterim 2009 are eligible to live off campus.  All first- and second-year students are expected to live on campus.  Release requests for students in this group will not be considered until late summer.  Those who desire to live on campus for the 2009-2010 academic year must follow the procedures outlined in this brochure.

Can I move off campus after the first semester?

No.  Your lease with Residential Life is for the entire academic year (September – May).  You must fulfill this obligation unless you are released for academic purposes.

Who is eligible to live in the White Mountain Apartments or Langdon Woods suites?

Anyone who will be 20 by Sept. 1, 2009 or have earned 30 credits by the end of Winterim 2009.

What paperwork do I need to complete to sign up for an apartment or suite?

You will be asked to sign a lease and complete a University Apartment/Suite Application.

Why do I have to indicate smoking/non-smoking status?

Even though smoking is prohibited in residence halls, it is very important to accurately indicate your status as a smoker/non-smoker.  Many non-smokers don't like the smell of smoke on clothing or other possessions or are allergic to it.
