Mandatory On-Campus Living Policy
Brevard College believes that an important part of a student’s education is achieved within the group living atmosphere maintained in residence hall life on campus. Therefore, the College is intentionally a residential college, and all students (unless otherwise approved) are required to live in a College residence hall and have a meal plan.

I understand that Brevard College has a mandatory on-campus living policy. *

Yes, I understand

Exemptions/Exceptions to the On-Campus Living Policy

A student may apply to live off campus if he/she qualifies under an enumerated exemption or exception (listed in next section). However, the application must be approved, in writing, by the Office of Housing and Residence Life. Therefore, a student should not make plans to live off campus unless and until written approval has been granted.

In order to live off-campus and not be billed for campus housing, I understand that I must qualify under an exemption or exception and receive written approval from the Housing office. *

Disability or Medical Need Exception To request an off-campus housing accommodations due to a disability or medical condition, please contact our Disability Services office (DisabilityServices@brevard.edu) for information about our accommodations process and to obtain copies of request forms (including a document entitled, “Documentation of Medical Need for Housing Accommodations”). Conditions such as social anxiety, mild depression, and cognitive impairment typically are not considered compelling reasons for approval to live off-campus.

I have a documented disability accommodation or medical exemption need (such as the need for post-hospitalization care, special medical equipment which cannot be accommodated in campus housing, or special care attendants). I will contact the Disability Specialist for further assistance to confirm that I qualify under this exception.

I do not meet any of the standard criteria. However, I wish to appeal due to the following special circumstances: (Please describe your circumstances below)

Financial Treatment
Until a student qualifies under an exception and receives approval, in writing, to live off-campus, the student will still be treated as a residential student and will be billed for room/board. A student who is approved to live off-campus may have his/her financial aid readjusted. In general, this may mean that the student will see a DECREASE in financial aid. Conditions vary by student; thus, all potential applicants should speak with personnel in the Financial Aid Office before submitting a request to live off campus.

I understand that I will be billed for room/board unless I qualify under an exemption or exception AND receive written approval to live off campus. *

Yes, I understand

I understand that I should contact the Financial Aid Office before submitting this application in order to understand how my financial aid award and costs of attendance will change, should I receive approval to live off-campus. *
