SMU Residence Requirements

SMU requires most incoming students to live on campus for two years. Living on campus is important for having the most robust and fulfilling SMU experience.

  1. First-year students must live on campus for their first two years at SMU and are assigned to 1 of 11 Residential Commons.
  2. New transfer students who are under 20 years old have a one-year residency requirement and are assigned either to a Residential Commons or to Upper-Division Housing.
  3. New transfer students who are over 20 years old have no requirement to live on campus but may apply and be assigned on a space-available basis.
