SUNY Fredonia Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
SUNY Fredonia requires all entering first-year students to live in on-campus residence halls during their first academic year. Students commuting from a parent or guardian's permanent home within an approved local radius may apply for an exemption.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Students who have completed their first year are eligible to move into the private rental market in Fredonia and nearby Dunkirk. The village has a compact supply of student-oriented rentals, so eligibility alone does not guarantee availability.
Lease Timing
Fredonia landlords typically begin listing properties for the next academic year in November and December. Students are strongly encouraged to search and sign leases before winter break to secure the best options before spring competition intensifies.
Housing policies change frequently. Always verify current requirements directly with SUNY Fredonia before signing a lease.
