Welcome to Off-Campus Living
Are you looking for a place to live Off-Campus?
Want to have the freedom to live off-campus after your first year on-campus? Yes? Excellent. Here’s what you need to know beforehand…Living off-campus does have its freedoms, but it comes with more rules, regulations, and responsibilities. When you live off-campus, you will be a student of East Carolina University and a citizen of the City of Greenville. Therefore students will need to know that both the ECU Student Code of Conduct and the Greenville City Ordinances apply to them. The department of Off-Campus Student Services works with students on a group and one-on-one basis to bring fine points to light and to explain and teach the mind set needed for successful living away from the University residence halls.
Starting for FALL 2012- East Carolina University Freshmen (defined as students who have completed fewer than 30 hours of college credit – excluding AP, dual enrollment, or early college hours) are required to live in college housing for at least two semesters. Exempted from this policy are students who have reached their twenty-first birthday prior to the first day of classes; veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces; married students; students with dependent children (living with them); or students who commute to school daily from the permanent, legal residence of their parents (within a 35 mile radius of campus.)
