California State University, Monterey Bay: Can my student get an exemption from a first-year live-on requirement?

By CollegeHousing.ai · Sources checked · 2026-27

DIRECT ANSWER

Yes. A first-year student subject to the residency requirement may request an exception through CSUMB's Live-On Requirement Exception Request process.

CSUMB requires affected first-year students to submit the Live-On Requirement Exception Request to be considered for housing cancellation. Approval is not automatic and may require supporting documentation.
