Inspection Process
Learn how to best prepare your room for your inspection with your RA!
Pre-Departure Inspections
Residents living in an apartment will make a pre-departure appointment with your RA to complete your inspection approximately 2-4 weeks prior to check-out. We encourage residents to review the apartment cleaning checklist prior to their inspection.
Day-of-Departure Inspections
Residents living in a traditional or suite bedspace will make an appointment with an RA to complete a day-of-departure inspection (within 24 hours of your departure). We encourage residents to review the traditional cleaning checklist prior to their inspection.
Damages and Fees
When residents fail to prepare their room or check out properly and on-time, it causes more work for our custodial, maintenance, and administrative teams that can impact the experience for the next resident in your room. Residents should be aware of the fees that can be incurred so they can avoid them:
- Failure to check-out by the indicated deadline will result in a $100.00 minimum late checkout fee with an additional $50.00 per hour not to exceed $250.00.
- Failure to properly check-out will result in a fee of $150.00. This will be in addition to any damage chargers for which you may be responsible.
- Additional cleaning or damage fees may also be assessed if your room requires significant attention from our teams.
- If you are granted an extension to your move-out deadline, there will be a $50.00 per night fee assessed for each night beyond your original move-out deadline.
Damages
Residents are responsible for the condition of their room/shared spaces and items. Residents are culpable for the associated costs to repair or replace them.
Trash
All trash and unwanted personal items must be removed from the building. To maintain the appearance of the residence halls, do not leave trash in stairwells, outside courtyards or in the smaller trash receptacles near the entry doors.
Leaving trash in or around the buildings will result in monetary fines. Dumpsters are made available all over campus. Please check with your student staff member for exact locations.
Common Areas
Common areas in the apartments will be inspected and damages assessed after resident departure. If you have questions or concerns about the condition of common areas, please address these with the staff member who conducts the inspection.
