Important Notes 

• Students may not stay in or enter any residence hall during breaks - that includes their own room or anyone else's room - without prior written approval from Residence Life. 
• A flat fee will be charged for access to halls during university breaks.
  • This fee is not pro-rated and there is no discount for partial stays.
• Dates are subject to change according to the University's Academic Calendar.

These guidelines are part of the Residence Life contract that all residents sign and are expected to follow. They are official University policies and are not open to individual negotiation.
