Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College requires that single students, under 21 years of age, with a permanent address more than 50 miles from the NEO campus live on campus in a resident hall. Exceptions to this policy include students over 21, married students, students with children, veterans, and international students.
The reason for this requirement is that living on campus provides opportunities for the many experiences which complement an academic career. In the resident and dining hall students meet new friends and enjoy a wide variety of social, recreational and cultural activities. Residential and dining services strives to provide students with opportunities and programs to assist with their adjustment to the academic demands of college life.
National studies have proven that students who live on campus perform better academically, are more involved in campus activities and have a greater likelihood of getting their college degree. Resident hall living greatly enhances the total educational experience.
All exceptions to the NEO residency requirement must be approved by the Director of Resident Life.
