In my opinion with regards university students I think it's best for them to go outside. I always recommend that. If they keep staying at home with their parents, there's an extremely likelihood of not having the capacity of leadership or, even, they will grow more insecure about how making a decision by themselves. Teenagers become new adults. They need to know other circumstances outside their family's home. They might need more space and liberty rather than stay at home with parents whom will question and prevent you from doing something

They need to learn how the world works by themselves. I was one of them and it was the best decision I've ever made, though, it can be hard sometimes, being alone by yourself when you have so much to do, so many people around, so much to study and so many decisions to make. You develop other skills that it might not grow in other students
