Housing Requirements and Exemptions West Texas A&M University is committed to the success of each student. Due to the fact that the university believes that living on campus plays a significant role in the success of students the university has developed the housing and meal plan requirements listed below. Housing Requirement The University requires all students with less than 60 semester credit hours, under the age of 21 on the first class day of each long semester (fall/sping) and enrolled in nine or more semester credit hours to live on campus. Meal Plan Requirement All students, under the age of 21, residing in on-campus housing are required to purchase a University meal plan until the student has accumulated 45 semester hours. Exemptions to the requirement may be pursued through the Office of Residential Living. Students under the requirement will have meal plan charges placed on their account unless they have an approved exemption. Exemptions Exemptions to the housing or meal requirements may be pursued through the Office of Residential Living. Students must seek approval each academic year while under the requirement. Students should not make arrangements to live off camus until approved by the Office of Residential Living. Students without an approved exemption will be held responsible for room and/or meal charges.
