Room Consolidation
During the semester, if a resident moves out of a double/shared room and the remaining resident is not assigned a roommate; the remaining resident may be asked to select one of the following options:
- Choose to move into another half-filled room in the community.
- Find another resident willing to move into the current resident’s room.
- Remain in the room and be prepared to accept a new roommate anytime.
The consolidation policy does not require individuals to move out of their community. Instead, the resident must consolidate with another individual living alone in a double-occupancy room. If more than one resident in the same community is without a roommate, the individual who paid their housing contract last may be the one to move.
Misuse of Shared Living Spaces
Residents are not permitted to occupy or use any space in their unit to which they are not assigned. This includes vacant beds, bedrooms and/or a bathroom on an unoccupied side of a room, suite or apartment.
Residents found in violation of this policy will be responsible for all charges necessary to return the room(s) to a move-in ready state by Residential Life standards and may also be charged for occupying both spaces.
