居住生活
A great way to immerse yourself in the college experience is to live on campus. Studies show that those who live on campus are more likely to develop close relationships with other students, 与教师交流, perform better academically and have overall higher satisfaction with their college experience.
When you ask alumni about their college experience, they tell stories of friends that were made in the residence halls, experiences that occurred around campus or times of major growth that often happened in the formative environment of living on-campus.

Living on campus provides you with inclusive living and learning experiences through community engagement. Be steps away from classes, friends, facilities and services.

I would describe the LR community as diverse and very inclusive; everyone has the opportunity to be involved in anything that they want to since there are so many different clubs and organizations.
新学生宿舍流程
作为一名新生, you will receive an email from the 居住生活 Office once you have established a valid LR email address. The email will contain a link to complete the first-year or transfer housing application.
This application needs to be completed by all incoming students, even if you are planning to live off-campus. You may use this application to request a particular 房间mate.
住房 confirmations will be emailed to all students in early July.
住房合同
The residence hall contract obligates you to live in the residence hall for the entire academic year, or if entered into after the start of the fall semester, for the remainder of the academic year. Summer term is regarded as a separate agreement.
Our contract is for campus housing and not for a particular accommodation, 房间, hall or 房间mate; however, consideration is given to preferences and requests. We reserve the right to assign 房间mates and/or to change 房间 or hall assignments, including consolidation of occupancy as spaces are vacated.
-
存款
A residence hall damage deposit of $200 will be assessed with the fall semester's billing. This deposit is refundable after you cease to rent a 房间 on campus, pending any damage charges that may have accumulated.
-
合同的终止
If for any reason enrollment at LR is terminated during an academic term, you must vacate the assigned 房间 and residence hall within 24 hours. Violations of residence hall or LR policies are considered sufficient grounds for immediate termination of the contract.
-
Cancellation of the Contract
If you are not required to live on campus or not enrolling in LR, you must notify 居住生活 in writing by June 30 to cancel this agreement. Contracts canceled between June 30 and August 1 will be assessed a $200 fine. Contracts canceled after August 1 or during the academic year will be assessed a $600 fine.
-
空间的变化
If you would like to move to a new 房间, you must follow procedures and the change must be approved by 居住生活. Making an improper 房间 change is subject to a fine, and you may be requested to return to the appropriate assigned 房间.
If you are living alone in a double 房间, we reserve the right to assign a second occupant to that 房间 or to charge you a single occupancy fee. If one of the occupants of a 房间 moves out or fails to enter LR as planned, the remaining occupant must:
- Accept another 房间mate, if there is one to assign
- Select a new 房间mate from the same Residence Hall who also does not have a 房间mate
- Move into a new 房间 in the same Residence Hall with a student who also does not have a 房间mate
- Pay the additional cost to keep the 房间 as a single 房间 (this option may not be available)
