If you're referring to me, a situation such as being an RA would be considered a "scholastic" excuse. Yes, they will vary from chapter to chapter, but the definitely need to be set out in the chapter bylaws and explained thoroughly to chapter members, otherwise, IME, women
will try to take advantage of them.
That is also why requests for live out go through the House Corp or Advisory Board. If a situation falls in a somewhat grey area, they can ascertain whether it's "legitimate" or not.
