All residents will be expected to vacate the residence halls during this time. For students remaining on campus over semester break, there is a $50.00/day charge. International students are allowed to stay on campus during semester break with no charge. These requests must be valid and made and approved through the Director of Residence Life.

Students will receive notification about residence hall closing dates, deadlines, etc. This information can also be found in the Residence Life Rights and Responsibilities.

During semester break, students are required to turn down their heat, unplug all items, and insure that all windows are closed. Fines will be assessed if students to not comply with these policies.
