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 you have reached your occupancy limit, your situation might warrant an extension! If you have reached your occupancy limit and need to stay longer, please reach out to us at president@sbfshtenantsunion.org and we can help you navigate this process!
