Housing exemption?

<p>What does that actually mean? I got accepted for one, and I have no idea what it is.</p>

<p>This means that you are not required to live on campus as an entering freshman during your first year at CPP if you live outside of the immediate local area because of one or more of the following criterias:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>21 years of age – Students who are at least 21 years of age by the first day of classes may request an exemption. Birth certificate will be required.</p></li>
<li><p>Current active military or veteran’s status – A copy of the DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty (if a veteran) or written proof of current active military duty is required.</p></li>
<li><p>Married, domestically partnered, and/or with legally dependent children – Copies of the marriage certificate or certificate of registration of domestic partnership, verification of dependent child or child’s birth certificate are required.</p></li>
<li><p>Independent student status – Student must have been declared as an independent student for the past two calendar years and not claimed as a tax exemption by their parent(s) during the same period. Verification is required.</p></li>
<li><p>Medical and disability circumstances – Exemption requests for medical or disability reasons will be forwarded to the University’s Disability Resource Center (DRC). DRC will take action on the request and notify the University Housing Office.</p></li>
<li><p>Other – Special circumstances for which living on campus would create a substantial personal hardship will be considered. Verification of the special circumstances is required. Financial hardship will be considered only in cases of extreme circumstances and only after financial aid options have been exhausted.</p></li>
