Housing Services and Maintenance
Living in a residence hall is an exciting part of the university experience. Students should familiarize themselves with various services offered to make their living environment as comfortable as possible.
Housing and Residence Life offers select services in the cost of housing. Some services and maintenance (like damage services) may incur additional fees.
