<p>Does it distinguish between off-campus with parents/off-campus as a non-traditional adult student (“true” commuters) and traditional-age undergrads living away from their permanent residences in off-campus housing?</p>
<p>That is the distinction I’m trying to uncover. They are two very different commodities. The latter are essentially traditional residential students, with a landlord other than the university. The former type of student usually contributes to a different campus character, and is looking for a different experience, with school being seen more as a job than a life. Lumping all "off-campus"students together sheds no light on this.</p>
