Residency Exemption

First-year andtransfer students who need to request an exemption from a residency requirement should email reslife@91ciba.com. You will need to provide information about your reasons for exemption.
Housing exemptions are being addressed on a rolling basis. Do not make arrangements for alternate housing until you are notified by Saint Louis University that an exception has been granted. If an exemption is not granted, you will be held responsible for your housing contract.

The letter must be dated no more than three months prior to when you request exemption.
Residential Contract Release
Your housing agreement with the University is a contract. While there are some circumstances where a request to be released from the contract will be granted, there may be financial implications, particularly if a request is made later in the contract period.
Contracts can be viewed via themy博彩网址大全 portal. Request for contract release may be considered for the following factors:
- Withdrawal or transfer from the University
- Study abroad
- Internship, practicum or military obligation
- Marriage
- Medical or psychological conditions
- Financial hardship
Cases cannot be considered until all necessary facts are collected. Appropriate documentation must be submitted with your application and will be considered by the assistant director for assignments and marketing.
A decision will be sent to you via USPS and 博彩网址大全 email. If you do not agree with the decision, you have five business days to appeal in writing to the University’s contract release review board.
