Travel Information for the On-Campus Residencies:
Residencies typically last for three to five days and are scheduled for the 1st week of each quarter (autumn, winter, spring, and summer). Since residencies are mandatory for successful course completion as well as degree completion, students must plan on being at every residency required by a course. It is the student's responsibility to make appropriate plans for missing work or other engagements, as well as plan for travel costs and lodging expense during the on-campus residency.
