Housing and Residence Life Reminds Students to Turn in Their Application and Deposit

Published by Colin Shevlin on February 23, 2010 in Res Life. 0 Comments

Housing is important. People in college need a place to sleep and study and keep their things. At least I think they do. Most people around me seem to anyway.

Housing and Residence Life would like to remind students that February 26 is the last day to turn in the housing application and $250 deposit for returning students. You must turn in the application and deposit by this day to ensure that you receive a housing application in March.

If you have any questions or concerns, contact slu.rha@gmail.com.
