pays when property is damaged, and so on. Section VI of this Handbook covers the University regulations on some of these points. W H A T IS A R O O M DEPOSIT A N D W H Y IS IT USED? When you choose your room, you will probably be asked to make a down payment to hold the room until you actually move into it. This is a room deposit. When you pay the deposit you agree that you will definitely rent the room, and that you will rent it for the period of time shown on the agreement. The house director, in turn, agrees that she will hold the room for you, under the terms you both have agreed upon when she accepts your deposit. The Housing Division approves of the practice of requiring deposits. It shows that both parties are acting in good faith, and that they both intend to live up to the conditions of the agreement. Agreements are not considered as "fully executed" until everyone concerned has signed, and you have paid the deposit. But if you are a new student, remember that you should not Fraternity Lounge sign an agreement or pay a deposit until the Director of Admissions has sent you your permit to enter. Usually, when you agree to rent a room, without board, you are expected to pay a $10 deposit. If you are to get both room and board service, you will be expected to pay a $25 deposit. If you are going to be living in a University-operated unit for single students, your deposit will be $25. Under certain circumstances you may have to forfeit your deposit: (1) If you do not enroll in the University for any reasons except illness or University action; (2) If you decide not to enroll and fail to let the house director know at least 20 days before the first day of registration.
