Exchange students are permitted to live off-campus in the neighborhoods adjacent to campus, but it is extremely difficult to find such private housing before the Fall or Spring semesters begin. If a student decides to live off-campus rather than in a residence halls, he or she must notify the Study Abroad Center of that decision and plan to come to Denton up to one week earlier in order to search for the desired accommodations. Study Abroad Center personnel are unable to assist the student in this search or in any negotiations with the leasing agent or owner of private accommodations. The only exception is at College Inn, where most rooms are self-catering. Cafeterias are located in Bruce, Clark, Kerr, Maple, and West Halls.
Vegetarian fare is available in Bruce Cafeteria.
Having paid for a meal plan, you may choose from any of the cafeterias and may eat all you want. Students can apply during orientation week from the Study Abroad Center or from many offers on campus in the first week. Local calls are free from the phones in dorm rooms. There are also many pay telephones located around campus. Students usually take 12-18 credit hours per semester.
