Residency Requirements
Rockhurst University has a residency requirement that requires all full-time
students to live with their parents or on campus unless students meet one
of the following conditions:
- Students classified as juniors having completed
60 hours with at least a "C" average.
- Students who have lived on campus for four semesters
at Rockhurst or another campus.
- Declared nursing students who reside in the Research
Housing Complex.
- Students who are 23 years or older.
- Students who have completed active, full-time
military service.
- Students who have a spouse or dependents living
with them.
Meal Plan
Students that live in Corcoran, McGee, or Xavier-Loyola (XL) are required to purchase a meal plan each semester.
Transfer and Graduate Students
Students transferring to Rockhurst with more than 60 credit hours will be placed on a waiting list for housing and will be placed as space is available. Incoming or current graduate students who are interested in campus housing will be placed on a waiting list for campus housing and will be placed in one of our residence halls as space is available. Graduate students placed in campus housing will not be guaranteed housing on an on-going annual basis.
Residency Exemption
Students with fewer than 60 credit hours who will be living at home with a parent or who meet one of our residency exemptions must complete a Residency Exemption form. This form must be completed and returned before the beginning of fall semester or the start of your enrollment at Rockhurst.
Meningitis Vaccination
All students living in a Residential community MUST receive the meningitis vaccination or sign a waiver to receive a room key. Residents will be directed to our meningitis clinic on move-in day if they did not receive the vaccination prior and wish to receive it. We HIGHLY encourage residents to get the vaccination prior to move-in day. If you have any additional questions please contact Health Services.
Loft Information
Rockhurst University only allows lofts rented or purchased from Loft Concepts
in our Residence Halls. If you are interested in having one in your room please
contact the company directly at www.loftconcepts.com. If ordered by the July 1st deadline, lofts will be set up in your assigned room prior to your arrival.
