Occupancy Limits

Under our housing contract, there are occupancy limits in place which limit how long you are allowed to stay in UCSB Family Student Housing. This is 4 years for a terminal Bachelor's degree, 2 for a terminal Master's degree, and 6 for a terminal Doctorate; OR 6 years in total, whichever comes first. 

If you need to live at FSH longer but have reached your occupancy limit, your situation might warrant an extension! You can petition for an extension here; you will need to submit a letter from your department or advisor stating how much additional time is needed to finish your degree and what the expected degree completion date is.

If you have further questions, please reach out to us at President.FSHTU@gmail.com and we can help you navigate this process!
