The student must be accepted to the college, have submitted a housing application with a (nonrefundable) housing deposit of $75.00, and have received a financial aid award, if applicable.
Once the $75.00 housing deposit has been received, the “Student Housing Contract Agreement” is mailed to the student with “Parent Consent Form for Sign-in/Sing-out.” Upon receipt of the contract form, the student must sign and return these documents to the office of residential services with a $50.00 deposit for breakage.
The housing assignment is mailed after contract is received back in the office of residential life.
During the dormitory check-in process, a “Residential Hall Agreement” form is completed by the residence hall Ssupervisor with the student indicating the condition of the room upon entrance. This form is signed by the student, residence hall supervisor, and parent, if available.
The $75.00 breakage fee is credited to the account of each student that resides on campus at the beginning of each academic term during the registration process.
At the close of each term during the dormitory check-out process, the residence hall supervisor along with the student re-evaluates the condition of the room. If there are breakage damages in excess of the breakage deposit, the student is to complete the “Fee Assessment Form for Dorm Damages” for submittal to the executive dean of student affairs.
The Executive Dean verifies the charges assessed by the residence hall supervisor and submits forms to the office of fiscal affairs.
The office of fiscal affairs reconciles each student’s breakage account at the close of each academic term and students are notified of breakage charges assessed. Refund checks are distributed by the business office, when applicable.
