Duration of Residency

All Residential Agreements are valid for the 40 week academic year unless otherwise individually negotiated.

Late payment of rent

A late payment fee of $35 applies if rent is not paid by the 5th day of the month.

Charges

While everyone locks him/herself out of a room or building occasionally, it should be understood that students are expected to take the responsibility of having their keys with them, and requests for this service should occur infrequently. We understand that a lockout will inevitably occur, so the first instance will be free of charge, unfortunately subsequent lockouts must be billed at $15.00 per lockout during working hours, 9.00 to 5.00pm and $25.00 for any other times and days when the University is closed.

DRS Entry Scholarships
