Need HELP! Living Off-Campus as a Freshman

<p>Although majority of people recommend living On-Campus in Freshman year,
Attending a private boarding high school for 4 years has tired me out. :(</p>

<p>I want to live on my own now!</p>

<p>I heard that Freshmen are able to live Off-Campus if —they pay certain amount of penalty. (??)</p>

<p>I have been searching basically everywhere on the website to find out how much it is.</p>

<p>But, there’s no information regarding penalty.</p>

<p>Has anyone lived Off-Campus as a Freshman?</p>

<p>there is no fee, but they put in 3780 for food under room and board. [College</a> Search - Ohio State University: Columbus Campus - OSU - Columbus - Cost & Financial Aid](<a href=“College Search - BigFuture | College Board”>College Search - BigFuture | College Board)</p>

<p>I’m pretty sure as long as you tell them you’re commuting from home they won’t know the difference. As a freshmen, your supposed to A live in a dorm or B live at home. Commuters don’t have to pay for room and board, so I’m not sure what the guy above is talking about.</p>

<p>you obviously do not know what your talking about. my first few words were: “there is no fee.” that number is just an expected amount that you will pay for food/other things not FROM THE COLLEGE.</p>
