Sacramento State is flipping the script for freshmen—starting this August, all new students must live on campus for their first two years, a bold move for a school long known as a commuter campus. Driven by President Luke Wood’s personal experience with homelessness during his time there, the policy aims to ensure stability, food, safety, and academic support. Exceptions exist for students living with immediate family within 50 miles (shrinking to 30 miles by 2027-2028), but the goal is clear: better grades, higher retention, and long-term student success. While other CSU campuses have tried similar mandates—with San Jose State abandoning theirs due to stress—Sac State hopes this approach will build a stronger foundation for students’ futures.
