A student parent who wishes to reside with a single minor child will be placed in a private bed room with a single bed. A student parent who subsequently has a second child may continue to reside in a private bedroom with a single bed room only if net livable space allows, but in no event, later than the time the second child reaches the age of 24 months. A student parent with two to four children over the age of 24 months will be placed in a unit with two private bedrooms and is required to lease each bedroom.
