Hello aspirant

hope you are doing well and safe. As per your query , I would glad to inform you that for sure you can stay in rented house while persuing degree in VIT AP . You need to just mail the student affairs department with a valid reason of staying outside campus and please tell them the genuine reason to convince them . However ,their are students of many courses who dont get hostel ,they also stays in the pgs or rooms so you dont need to worry at all in this

Hope you found this answer informative. Best wishes for your future
