Emory University: Can my student get an exemption from a first-year live-on requirement?
DIRECT ANSWER
Yes. A student subject to the residency requirement can request an exemption and must receive written approval.
Emory’s 2026–27 housing agreement provides a formal exemption path from the first- and second-year residency requirement. Approval is based on the University’s listed eligibility grounds and supporting documentation; students should keep the on-campus obligation in place until an exemption is approved.
