Living Off Campus

There are two ways that a student can live off-campus while attending Heidelberg.  The two types of off-campus living and the criteria for each are listed below.

 

Commuter Living 

(Commuter Application)

An application for commuter living is required of all students who wish to commute.  Students who currently commute must re-apply each year.  Applications for commuter status must be submitted to the Office of Residence Life by March 20th, 2009 at 4:30 pm.  Students who wish to apply for commuter status must reside with their parent(s) within a 50 mile radius of Heidelberg University determed by Yahoo Maps from 310 E. Market St. Tiffin OH 44883. This commuter application is for currently enrolled students who have been enrolled with Heidelberg University for at least one full semester.  New students to Heidelberg will receive a commuter application/contact with their Orientation information.

Off Campus Living 

(Off-Campus Living Application)

Off Campus Living is a special privilege granted to a limited number of students enrolled at Heidelberg University.  An application/contract for this living arrangement is required of all students.  Students who currently live off campus must re-apply each year.  Selections are prioritized in the same manner as those of other housing options.  Applications for off-campus living status must be submitted to the Office of Residence Life by March 20, 2009 at 4:30 pm. 
A student may apply for Off-campus housing if they meet one of the following requirements: 
·         23 or older before August 20th. Age will be verified with University records.
·         Married or the parent of a dependent minor child.  Copy of marriage or birth certificate must be submitted with Off Campus Request.
·         Successful completion of 69 credit hours from Heidelberg University as of January 1st. Academic status will be verified with the Registrar.

Once a Student is Approved to live off campus by the Residence Life Office, a Landlord Agreement must be submitted before final approval can be given.
