Parents

Housing | Parents Handbook

Students living on campus are required to sign a housing contract. By signing this contract, students will automatically be enrolled in The Lute Choice meal plan.  Students have the ability to change their meal plan as outlined in the Meal Plan Requirement.  Once students have obtained their ePass, they should read their Housing Guide and electronically sign their Housing and Meal Plan Contract, found online at the Residential Life webpage: www.plu.edu/~rlif. 

Residency Requirement
PLU requires that all full-time students live in University housing unless they meet one of the following criteria:

• Live at home with a parent, legal guardian, spouse, or child.
• 20 years of age or older on or before September 1st to be exempt for the academic year, or on or before February 1st to be exempt for spring semester.
• Have achieved junior status (completed 60 semester hours) prior to the beginning of fall semester to be exempt for the academic year, or prior to spring semester to be exempt for the spring semester.

A separate board contract, which is available online: (www.plu.edu/~lutecard),  is also required for all students living on campus with the exception of South Hall. Students are expected to be familiar with the contents of the contract and the expectations outlined in it and are reminded that it is a commitment to abide by specific terms and conditions.

All students under 20 years of age are required to live on campus unless they are married, living at home with parent, guardian, spouse or child or have achieved junior status (60 semester hours). Students who live off campus without proper authorization are subject to disciplinary action as well as cancellation of their class registration.
