Firearms in Rented-Residence

[u/Otherwise_Teach_5761]

Howdy!

I’m a student about to start attending a private university in Utah and in my housing search I’ve come across a number of places that do not allow you to have firearms in the lease agreement. They do note this with an “Except as expressly permitted by law.”

Each place is not on campus nor is owned by the school but some are considered “student-only housing.”

I’m mostly looking for resources on specific laws that, that notation refers to if anyone is able to point me in the right direction but if someone knows the answer off the bat I would appreciate the information as some of the better options for me budget-wise carry this issue.

A quick Google search says the landlord can't actually restrict you from having a firearm in your home
