All first, second and third year students are required to live in the residence halls or with a local parent or guardian. Students who do not adhere to the Residential Living Policy are subject to judicial sanctioning.  

All residential students are required to have a board plan during each contract year. Bellarmine provides a board plan program that offers the student tremendous flexibility and convenience. The board plan options described in the Food Service section of the Student Handbook allow you to select a board plan that best meets your needs. Students may change their board plan selection during the first ten business days of the semester.
