Check-Out Procedures

Written materials outlining check-out procedures will be available to students via this web site. Rooms must be thoroughly cleaned and all trash must be placed in containers provided. Students who do not follow the check-out procedures may be held financially accountable through fees and fines. All college owned furniture must be returned to the student's room and reset to its original design. This means that beds must be bunked and/or reassembled correctly. Students are expected to check-out 24 hours after their last final exam. Residents who live internationally, have transportation problems, or have extenuating circumstances should talk to the Residential Life Office to receive permission to stay in the halls past the official close. Students who check out of the halls late may incur substantial fees with the minimum fee for an improper check-out starting at $100. Please be aware of your responsibility to manage your time in order to avoid an improper check-out fee. Returning students who refuse to leave the halls at their designated time will risk having their housing contract rescinded for the coming year. Students who choose to become involved in conduct within the last few days of the semester may be asked to leave the halls immediately.
