HOUSING STUDENTS WITH ACCOUNT BALANCES:
Laker
Hall move-in begins on Friday, January 8, 2010.
You will not be permitted to move into Laker Hall until you pay your balance in full or set up a payment plan (see above). In addition, your class schedule and housing contract is subject to cancellation, if your balance is not paid or you do not have a payment plan in place.
Important Note Regarding Signed Housing Contracts and Cancellations:
New Freshman Students: If you have a signed housing contract and your class schedule is cancelled, you will forfeit your paid reservation deposit, and you will be assessed a Housing Contract Cancellation Fee ($500.00). Please note also that the Freshman Live-on Campus Requirement still applies to all new fulltime freshman students regardless of a class schedule/housing contract cancellation (unless a live-on requirement exemption has been granted).
Continuing, Current, and Transfer Students: If you have a signed housing contract and your class schedule is cancelled, you will forfeit your paid reservation deposit, and you will be assessed a Housing Contract Cancellation Fee ($500.00).
