Eligibility Requirements

Residents must meet the following eligibility criteria to live in BYU Student Family Housing at Wymount Terrace and Wyview Park:

1. Eligible families must fall into one of the following categories:
   1. A married couple (with or without children).
      • Engaged couples may submit an agreement for an apartment at any time, provided the availability date of the apartment is no more than thirty days prior to their marriage date. For example, if you are getting married on January 30, you may submit an agreement at any time, but only for an apartment with an availability date of January 1 or later.
      • Both spouses must reside in the apartment. The spouse of the student is not required to be a BYU student, but the spouse must have a BYU NetID and must sign the Housing Agreement. A spouse can create a NetID here.
   2. A parent with one or more dependent children.
      • The child must reside in the apartment and the parent must have full custody of the child.


2. Families with foster children are not eligible to live in BYU Student Family Housing.


3. Parents, siblings, and other relatives of the resident are not considered members of the immediate family and are not permitted to reside in the apartment.


4. At least one spouse must be an admitted BYU student and enrolled in at least the number of credits hours indicated below (Independent Study credits do not count toward this requirement):

   Student Type	Fall Semester	Winter Semester	Spring Term*	Summer Term*
   Undergraduate Students	9 credits	9 credits	4 credits	4 credits
   Graduate Students	2 credits	2 credits	2 credits	2 credits
   *During Spring and Summer Terms, you are not required to be enrolled if you have been a resident of BYU Student Family Housing as a full-time student (at least 9 credits for undergraduates or 2 credits for graduates) for the previous two semesters and you will be a full-time BYU student in the Fall semester.

• Admitted BYU students may count BYU Salt Lake Center credits toward the minimum credit hour requirement.
• Those enrolled in classes as post-baccalaureate, concurrent enrollment, or BGS students may submit a petition to the Housing Review Board requesting eligibility to live on campus. Petitions are reviewed on a case by case basis.
• Those attending the English Language Center are not admitted to BYU, and are therefore not eligible to live on campus.
• Those attending the BYU Salt Lake Center, but who are not admitted to BYU, are not eligible to live on campus.


5. The following restrictions apply to the number of occupants per apartment:

   Apartment Size	Maximum Number of Occupants*
   One-Bedroom Apartments	Maximum of 2 occupants
   One-Bedroom Apartments with Study	Maximum of 4 occupants
   Two-Bedroom Apartments	Maximum of 4 occupants
   Three-Bedroom Apartments	Maximum of 6 occupants
   *Maximum occupants allowed may vary, depending on dependent children's ages.
