Trouble for Commuting

<p>I am going to be a freshmen next year that requires you to live on campus as freshmen and sophmore unless commuting from home. </p>

<p>What kind of trouble can i get in if i get caught commuting from an apartment when i am saying i am commuting from home? i already signed for an apartment</p>

<p>The apartment would be your home…</p>

<p>no u must be commuting from parents house</p>

<p>Are you sure? Does it specifically say that, or just say “from home”?</p>

<p>from parents/ guardiens home</p>

<p>That’s silly. What about, say, a veteran who’s 22 years old? Talk about easy access for alcohol to all the freshmen if they forced him to live in a dorm… some schools, sigh…</p>

<p>Anyway, I don’t think you’d get in much trouble. Certainly wouldn’t get suspended or expelled. How would they catch you anyway?</p>

<p>if you are 21 u can live off campus as a freshmen, idk a lot of colleges are like this at least in the midwest.
idk how i would get caught but u never know some buddy telling on you or a girl that is mad at me or something telling on me lol.</p>

<p>Heh, true.</p>

<p>You could make a fake email address, then email the department of housing asking about the policy and what the punishment is. That way you could get a real answer, and they wouldn’t know it was you who was possibly thinking of moving off campus :P</p>

<p>I very highly doubt there’s going to be any issue unless you create an issue (don’t serve alcohol or sell drugs out of your apartment). Colleges have policies like that to help freshmen transition, not to try to screw them over, and if they find out it’ll be at a point when they can no longer offer you housing.</p>

<p>there is no way the school would find out. they are so entangled in bureaucracy…</p>

<p>the only document the school would have of your residency is a single sheet of paper in the first file of the first drawer of the first filing cabnet of room 301 of the third floor of that one building…</p>

<p>no way, just no fricken way that anyone would EVER find out…EVER…</p>

<p>please, live in a apartment…its awesome</p>

<p>ok thanks i didnt figure i would get in much trouble thats why im doing it just wanted to see how much and if anyone has done it before on here</p>

<p>I don’t think anyone would seriously care. At Boston University, freshman are required to live in dorms for their first semester, but I hear of plenty of people who manage to convince the housing authority that they need a special “permit” so that they could live at home or rent apartments near the university. And usually, BU grants them.</p>
