Upperclass Housing Contract
This contract is a legally binding agreement for housing at the University of Rochester. Once it is submitted, you will be contractually obligated for University housing for the fall and spring semesters of the 2009–10 academic year subject to the conditions below. By signing the Residential Life/Dining Services Application-Contract you agree that:
On-Time Class of 2010 and 2011 Applications:
Students submitting this application by the published
upperclass application deadline are qualified
for a regular or crowded space in University
housing if adequate space is available.
Late Class of 2010 and 2011 Applications:
If space remains after all on-time applicants have
been offered assignments, late applicants will
be offered assignments based on the order in
which their applications are received. You are not
required to accept an assignment offered in this
way. However, once you accept, you become
contractually obligated for University housing
for the fall and spring semesters of the 2009–10
academic year subject to the conditions below.
Class of 2012 Room Drawing Preference Materials:
All Class of 2012 sophomores are entitled and
obligated to live in University housing for the fall
and spring semesters of the 2009–10 academic
year subject to the conditions below. Students
who submit on-time room drawing preference
materials will be allowed to participate in the annual
room drawing process. Students desiring to
live at home with family must petition for release
from this requirement prior to submitting a housing
application.
Late or Missing Class of 2012 Room Drawing Preference Materials:
Class of 2012 sophomores
who submit late room drawing preference
materials or do not submit any materials will be
automatically assigned housing following the
annual room drawing process in remaining available
or crowded space. Charges for 2009–10 will
be posted to the student term bill. Students with
Bursar holds will be assigned available housing
after all other sophomores have been assigned.
No assignment will be made unless you have paid your enrollment deposit (new students) or have been cleared by the Bursar’s Office (continuing students).
You are applying for an assignment within the residence halls system and not for any specific space. Assignments will be made according to the procedures established by the Director of Residential Life.
If you arrive at school late or leave early, or are required to leave for disciplinary reasons, the full-year contract is still binding on you, except as explicitly otherwise provided in this document.
By signing and submitting this application you accept responsibility to pay all resultant charges for residential life services, even if you do not make use of some or all of the services noted.
The University agrees faithfully to provide those services unless events beyond its control prevent its doing so.
