About Off-Campus Housing Near Texas Woman's University
Texas Woman's University brings about 16,400 students to Denton, a North Texas college town it shares with the University of North Texas and that runs on music and the arts. Though its history is rooted in educating women, TWU is coeducational today, and its leafy campus is known for the Little Chapel-in-the-Woods, a hand-built landmark dedicated by Eleanor Roosevelt, plus Botanical Gardens students wander between classes. Downtown Denton wraps an 1896 courthouse square a few blocks south, with indie shops, a free history museum, and live music most nights. The spring Redbud Festival traces back to a TWU tradition, and Ray Roberts Lake sits close for trails and water. A regional rail line links Denton to the wider Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Texas Woman's University Housing Requirements
Freshman Live-On Requirement
TWU requires full-time, single undergraduates with fewer than 60 completed credit hours to live on campus, with exemptions in limited cases. The residence communities are sorted by credit-hour standing, from Parliament Village for first-years up to Lowry Woods for upperclassmen and students with families. Most freshmen at Texas Woman's University start in Parliament Village.
Off-Campus Eligibility
Students typically qualify to move off campus once they pass 60 hours, turn 21, marry, have dependents, or live at home with family within commuting distance. Once eligible, most students move into Denton apartments, and the university even partners with a couple of off-campus complexes that run weekday shuttles. Denton's a two-university town, so demand is steady year-round.
Lease Timing
The rental process uses standard Texas leases with an application fee, a credit or income check, and a guarantor if your history is thin. Confirm whether utilities are capped, check occupancy limits on houses, and read the subletting clause before you sign. Leases here typically run 12 months aligned to the August start of classes.
