Live
The University of Idaho requires all full-time, first-year students under 21 years of age to live in organized living groups officially recognized by the university (residence halls, fraternities and sororities, women’s cooperative) for one academic year.
This policy is predicated on the belief that students who reside on campus prosper in an integrated living and learning environment. Research has shown that students who live on campus have higher GPAs and graduate faster.
