General Housing Policy

Taylor University is a residential campus by design, therefore, all single undergraduate students must live in university owned housing or in the home of their parents/legal guardian.

Due to over enrollment, it is sometimes necessary for a limited number of students to live off campus in the town of Upland. The number of students approved to live off campus is based on projected enrollment and retention. Because these figures change from year to year, an application and approval process has been established.

Upper-class students have the opportunity to apply to live off campus but no student is guaranteed off campus approval. Married students and students over the age of 25 are automatically approved to live off campus.

The center for student development administers all undergraduate student housing. If you would like to talk with someone about the housing policy, please contact the department of residence life.
