Housing Changes This Year

With housing selection coming up in just over a month, there are a few changes students should be aware of for the 2010-2011 selection process.

 1) Students 21 years old or older as of the first day of classes (August 30, 2010) will be eligible to live off campus. The age limit had been 22 years old.

2) In order to be considered for Le Shana Hall, your group will need to have 6 people. Groups of 5 will not be considered for Le Shana.

 3) A $100 non-refundable housing deposit will be paid in order to be eligible to go through housing sign ups.

 Details about the housing deposit:

1)     You will be able to pay your deposit starting in mid-February. It will need to be paid by March 12th order to go through housing selection. We’ll let you know when you can start paying your deposit.

2)     You will need to have a current account (as determined by Student Financial Services) in order to pay your housing deposit.

3)     The deposit may be refunded if you withdraw it prior to housing selection or do not go through housing selection. If you withdraw your deposit prior to selection, then you will not go through selection.

4)     Once you have received a housing assignment your deposit will then be applied toward your housing charges.

5)     The housing deposit will be forfeited if you cancel your housing after receiving an assignment.

6)     If you will be living with an RA or chosen by an RA to live in a house you will need to submit your housing deposit before housing selection.
