We understand that students' schedules and extracurricular activities can be very busy and rigid in nature, which means a meal may be missed. In such circumstances, students may request a boxed meal. Simply fill out a boxed meal request form at least 24 hours in advance and pick up your meal on the requested day. These meals will be marked off your meal card and you can enjoy your meals when convenient for you. Apartments are also listed in the newspaper, and notices are often posted around the campus and on bulletin boards in stores and shopping malls.
Many apartments require the tenants to sign a lease.
A lease is a legal binding contract that you, as a tenant, and your landlord sign. By signing this lease you agree to pay rent for a certain number of months, usually twelve. When you sign, you must be given a copy. Breaking a lease is very difficult, so do not sign for a longer period of time than you intend to stay. It is important to look for a place that includes the cost of heat and electricity in the rent, then extra expenses will be kept to a minimum.
