University of California, Santa Cruz: Are first-year students required to live on campus?
DIRECT ANSWER
No. UCSC lets incoming students indicate whether they plan to live on campus, and its new-student guidance also directs students planning to live off campus to Community Rentals.
UCSC does not publish a general first-year live-on mandate. Incoming students indicate an on-campus or off-campus housing preference during the admission process. Students who want the current housing guarantee must request university housing and meet the applicable deadlines.
