What About Off-Campus Housing? What TU Means By “Real Community”

“A Real Community” Means Real Immersion

Into College Life

One of the hallmarks of Tiffin University is our sense of “real community” on campus – from housing to academics.  Our beautiful 110-acre campus offers a myriad of choices for housing, and all freshmen,  sophomores and juniors are expected to live in one of our residential options.  We want your college experience to be a well-rounded one, and this means that the fellow students you live with, become friends with and go to classes with will also become your lifelong friends!

TU reserves the right to require all traditional age full-time students to live on campus and participate in the food service program during their first, second and third years of attendance.  All students who are required to live on campus are also required to participate in the food service program. There will be an automatic billing for Residence Life for the second and third year of attendance at T.U. Students will have the opportunity to select rooms, roommates and residence halls for each upcoming year.

Medical & Financial Exceptions

For every rule or regulation, there are exceptions of course, and at T.U., we attempt to meet each student’s needs, on an individual and personal basis.  For medical or financial situations, students may apply to move off-campus before their required housing obligations are fulfilled. Applications may be picked up in the Student Affairs Office. Upon completion of the application, it will be turned over to the Off-Campus Living Committee, which meets periodically throughout the year. Students will then be notified in writing through the Student Affairs Office as to the status of their application, or to be informed of the committee’s final decision. The Off-Campus Living Committee is dedicated to finding the best solution for students who have documented medical or financial needs.
