| Q: | Am I required to live on campus? | |
| A: | First-year students admitted to Carnegie Mellon are required to live on campus and have a meal plan, unless granted an exception through the Dean of Student Affairs. While the majority of campus residents return to campus housing the following year, upperclass housing and meal plans are optional. Please note that it is very difficult to return to campus housing once a resident chooses to move off campus. |
