What is the meaning of "in residence" at a university? I'm applying for readmission to UC Berkeley after taking a semester off.  In the Application for Readmission, one question asks, "Will you be in residence at Berkeley for the entire semester?"

Does "in residence at Berkeley" mean "using on-campus housing" or just "living in the vicinity of the university"?
This is the response I received from my graduate program's coordinator:


  It just means physically being here, so doesn't have to be on-campus housing.
