Residential Activity Fee

The residential activity fee funds all programs and activities sponsored by residential organizations and communities. The activity fee is distributed among hall/community governments, staff, student organizations, and Residence Life and Housing. If you're concerned with how your money is spent, become involved with your residential community council or other residential student organization.


Renter's Insurance

The university does not assume responsibility for loss or damage to personal property. Thefts can occur when residents leave their room doors unlocked and property unattended. Keeping your room door locked at all times is your best defense against theft. We recommend that you take any expensive items home during long breaks when the buildings are closed.

After determining what it would cost to replace your more expensive belongings, check to see if your family homeowner's insurance would cover the loss. If not, we suggest that you purchase additional personal property insurance.


Cancelation Policy

We do understand that circumstances may arise to change your housing plans and cancelation may become necessary. New, incoming students in an academic year contract (residence halls) must request to cancel in writing.

This can be done by email, fax, or U.S. postal mail. Verbal cancelation to the Office of Residence Life and Housing or other campus departments is not valid. Residents of campus apartments (College Park, Forest Lane, University Park and the Village) are under binding agreements and are subject to the replacement lease process as detailed in the terms and conditions. In your letter requesting cancelation, include your name, university ID (UID) number, and a brief explanation of why you are canceling.
