Commuter & Off-Campus Living
At É«ÇéÂÛ̳, we value all of our students and want them to be involved, whether they live on campus, in non-university housing, or commute.
You are considered a Commuter Student if you are living at your permanent address.
You are considered an Off-Campus Student if you are renting a housing space in the local area ( i.e. Bristol, Warren, Fall River or Portsmouth, etc.).
Connecting as a Commuter
Our commuter students are an important and vital part of the É«ÇéÂÛ̳ community. Each commuter student is different and the University wants to support your life as you balance your courses, traveling to campus, employment, family obligations and your college life.
