Homeless students are defined as:
- Individuals who lack a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence
- Share housing of other persons due to loss of housing, economic hardship, or a similar reason
- Living in motels, hotels, trailer parks, or camping grounds due to the lack of alternative adequate accommodations
- Living in emergency or transitional shelters

| Code | Description | Definition |
|---|
| 10 | Shelters | Children and youth living in shelters and transitional housing programs (homeless and domestic violence programs). Children and youth awaiting foster care placement.
|
| 11 | Transitional Housing | Children living in emergency or transitional housing. |
| 13 | Doubled-Up | Children and youth (including runaway youth or unaccompanied youth) who live with relatives or friends due to being homeless. |
| 14 | Hotel/Motel | Children and youth living in hotels/motels due to a lack of alternative adequate accommodations. |
| 15 | Unsheltered | Children and youth living in abandoned buildings, campgrounds and vehicles, space not meant for habitation, trailers or FEMA trailers, cars, bus and train stations, and abandoned in the hospital. Unsheltered may include substandard or inadequate housing that does not easily fit into any category as it is not governed by a specific definition and is judged on a case-by-case basis. An inadequate dwelling may shelter but it is not adequate housing.
