What to Expect

Staff will enter your room/suite at some point during the specified timeframe to complete the inspection. The inspection should take no longer than five minutes. You do not need to be present at the time of inspection.

During the visit, staff will visually inspect for prohibited items and confirm safety devices are in place. This includes verifying the presence of window guards on all windows within your room. Please fully raise your blinds prior to the inspection time to help expedite this process.

Shared living spaces (suite kitchens, living rooms, etc.) are the responsibility of all residents of that suite. Staff will also inspect these shared spaces. Residents are encouraged to work together with their suitemates to ensure shared spaces are clean and free of prohibited items.

If you are aware of a facilities issue within your room or suite (missing smoke detector, broken equipment, etc.), you are encouraged to submit a Service Request.

COVID-19 Safety

Masking is strongly recommended in all indoor spaces on campus. Please visit the COVID website to learn more.
