Living Off Campus
Residence Life and Housing acts as a liaison between the University, its students, landlords/property managers, neighbors, neighborhood associations, and the City.
Wake Forest has a six-semester residency requirement, subject to housing availability. Learn more here.
Students with less than six housing credits should not plan to live off-campus unless they have been released in writing from the residency requirement by Residence Life and Housing.
