Early Arrival Request
Consideration for fall arrival without charge, prior to 3pm on Sunday before the first day of class, is given only to continuing students who are sponsored by a faculty or staff member and who are a required participant in activities which necessitates being on campus. Examples are fall athletes, student teachers, on-campus employees, and members of student leadership teams.
All other early arrival requests will be subject to denial or a nightly charge. Approval will be considered, with a nightly charge, for students meeting these criteria:
- Students arriving early to begin a for-credit internship
- International students
- Travel hardship
Requests are submitted on the portal under the Residence Life section. For a January early arrival request, please use the Break Housing Form found in the same section of the portal.
Please note that we are not able to honor early arrival and late departure requests based on off-campus leases.
Break Housing
Campus housing closes for both Christmas and Spring Breaks. Because there is an institutional need for some students to remain on campus over breaks, the College works to accommodate those needs. Students approved to remain in a residence hall will have access to the shared kitchen in their building. Students approved to remain on campus, who do not have an institutional need, are charged a nightly housing fee and they will be notified of the application process at the beginning of B-Quad in the fall and in February for spring break needs.
