Life On Requirement and Exemption

PNCA requires all students to live in university housing for two semesters. You may review the Criteria for Exemptions, but those typically granted include students residing with parent(s)/guardian(s) within 25 miles of campus or are over the age of 21 by the start of the academic year.

To request an exemption, submit the Residency Requirement Exception Request form. You will then be provided access to the exemption application within the WU Housing Portal and provide any requested documentation.

Please note, your offer of financial aid is based on the cost of attendance as an on-campus residential student. If approved for an exemption, your offer of financial aid may be adjusted. Contact your admissions counselor or the Office of Financial Aid for additional information prior to requesting an exemption.

Prior to Arrival

If you plan to work on campus, you will need to provide documentation verifying your eligibility to work in the United States as part of the hiring and onboarding process. To help avoid delays, we recommend bringing the necessary documents with you to campus.

Commonly used documents include a U.S. passport or a Social Security card and an original birth certificate. You can review the complete list of acceptable documents on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website.

Once you have been offered an on-campus job, you will need to present your required documents in person at the Office of Human Resources. Failure to provide acceptable documentation during onboarding may delay the start of your on-campus employment.
