Commuters
As a commuter student, you are among the 1,400 Lipscomb University undergraduate students who commute to campus.
Lipscomb is in an urban environment providing easy access to our community and downtown Nashville. We advocate for the growing population of students living off-campus and recognize the unique needs of living in the surrounding neighborhoods of the University.
Our Commuter Student Program is dedicated to the support and engagement of these student populations. Regardless of whether you reside two blocks from campus or two hours, through a variety of resources and support, our office is committed to supporting your student experience as a Lipscomb Bison.

Commuter Assistant
The Commuter Assistant program helps commuting students plug in to life at Lipscomb and establish a sense of belonging on campus.
To be a Commuter Assistant, you must have completed at least one year of college at Lipscomb as a commuter student. Incoming Freshmen will be connected with an upperclassmen Commuter Assistant. This commuter assistant will serve as a resource for first year students and will be available to assist a student looking for academic resources, opportunities to plug in to a student life group, or simply attend campus events alongside them. Each student will be a part of what we call a “Herd.” As Each Herd arrives to campus in the fall, commuter assistants are tasked with taking time to set up events where each herd has the opportunity to connect with each other and provide incoming commuters with a social resource that will set them up for success.
