This policy is in effect during the fall and spring semesters for all Lees-McRae College main campus students. Requests for exceptions to this policy must be made by the student through the Office of Student Affairs. Exceptions to the policy will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Students who are approved to live off campus will be granted this approval for their entire time at Lees-McRae. Students may return to live on campus, but must contact the Office of Student Affairs, and there must be vacancy on campus to do so.
