commuter school
No-dorm university
A commuter school is a college or university where most students live off campus and travel to classes rather than residing in dormitories.
These institutions typically draw from the surrounding area and lack the traditional residential campus life: State universities in urban areas are often commuter schools.
The term sometimes carries a dismissive connotation, implying a less prestigious or less immersive college experience.
