1 General Guidelines PERSONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY Students are expected to assume responsibility for their own personal care. Ohio law and general health practices influence some of our guidelines for community health. Each student is required to complete the Hepatitis B/Meningitis Vaccination Status Form and provide verification of measles immunity (via measles vaccination, a positive measles lab titer, or MMR vaccination) as a prerequisite for living in Student Communities. These requirements and additional information can be found at cedarville.edu/ums. RESIDENTIAL REQUIREMENT AND OFF-CAMPUS ELIGIBILITY Cedarville is a residential campus, which means that most of our undergraduate students will live in the residence halls or Student Communities. Some exceptions include: • Students 23 years of age or older* • Married students • Students who commute from their parents’ homes • Upperclassmen (juniors or seniors) granted special permission to live off campus A student must be between the ages of 20 to 29 (on the first day of classes in the fall semester) to live in townhouses, apartments, or Shrubsole House. Students 30 or older may live in graduate housing (South and Harriman Halls) and married housing (Cedar Park). No first-year freshmen are permitted to live in Student Communities. * Students between the ages of 23 and 25 years of age may live on campus but do not need permission to live off campus. Students 26 years of age or older must secure Student Communities housing or live off campus. Eligibility is determined by a student’s age on the first day of classes in the fall semester. LENGTH OF TERMS AND BILLING Students living in Student Communities will be billed per semester. The billing schedule and payment options can be found on the Cashiers Office webpage. There is no refund or proration if a student fails to reside in the Student Communities for the entire semester (i.e., moves in after the semester begins or moves out before the semester ends). Utilities (electricity, heat, air conditioning, water, sewer, and internet) are included in these rates for all options except married housing. Students living in any Student Communities are not required to purchase a meal plan. However, a meal plan can be purchased. Meal plan options are available through your eRezLife account.
