The residence hall officially closes at 10am on August 10, 2008. 

All Students Should Check-Out
All students should arrange a check out time with their RA at least 24 hours in advance of their departure.  RAs are students with finals and jobs too, so it is important to set up a mutually convenient time.  (Failure to check out properly and return keys result in an administrative fee for Improper Checkout.) If you are not returning for the Fall, please make sure to fill out a request for the return of your security deposit; if you do not fill this out, you may not receive your deposit.

Check-out Procedure

• Make an appointment to checkout with your Resident Assistant at least 24 hours in advance of your departure.
• In order to complete final room inspections, the residence hall will close at 10 a.m. August 10, 2008.  All students must have removed all belongings and have completed an appointment with their Resident Assistant. (BEFORE 10:00 a.m., August 10)
• Please remove all personal belongings including items you no longer want (carpets, furniture from home, trash, etc.) and take it to the trash room.  Do not leave unwanted items in hallways, stairwells, bathrooms, study rooms, lawn areas, etc.
• Please sweep your room (including closet floor), clean out closets and drawers, and remove all decals, posters, tape, decorations, etc. from the windows, walls, floors, etc.

• Please return all beds and room furniture to their original positions.  Please do not leave beds bunked.
• Micro fridge unit must be cleaned, unplugged and free of debris.

  By choosing Express Check-Out, you are waiving your right to contest damages and cleaning charges.  Therefore, we strongly recommend you follow the traditional checkout method.
  
  It is important you follow the instructions above.  We do not want to charge students for failing to take responsibility in properly checking out and/or moving.  However, due to time constraints, we have no choice but to assess clean up and damage charges for students who fail to check out and/or move properly.
