CHECK OUT Marywood's MEAL PLAN OPTIONS

Each resident is provided with a dresser/chest, desk and chair, bed and mattress (long twin), closet/wardrobe.

Fire safety requirements prohibit cooking in the residence halls except in the kitchenettes designed for such use. Free standing microwaves are not permitted in residence hall rooms.

Students may opt to arrange to rent or purchase a MicroFridge through mymicrofridge.com.

MicroFridges are designed to limit energy consumption because the refrigerator turns off when the microwave is in operation, and vice versa.

Student owned mini-refrigerators are permitted in residence hall rooms as long as specifications are less than or equal to the MicroFridge specifications. Mini-refrigerators that exceed these specifications are prohibited.

Laundry is included in your Room and Board, students do not need to pay for Laundry. All residence Halls have Laundry facilities.

Occasionally, roommates face conflicts and when these conflicts are unable to be resolved solely between students, the Housing and Residence Life staff is available for mediation and support. If a conflict cannot be resolved between students, the students are encouraged to speak to their Resident Assistant. The Resident Assistant may then facilitate a mediation session with all involved parties. The goal of mediation is for the involved parties to discuss their concerns and determine the best course of action. In many cases, students participating in this neutral communication setting are able to make compromises and resolve concerns. If not, then the Residence Director may become involved to determine whether room changes are appropriate.

In cases where it is determined that the paired roommates cannot continue to share the same room, Housing and Residence Life staff does not typically designate who will move. Sometimes, this means that all people involved in the situation will relocate. 

First, you would need to contact the Office of Housing and Residence Life in order to apply to be released from your housing contract.

You will also need to fill out and submit a Release From Housing Agreement Application to the Housing and Residence Life office. Please note that a submission of a Release From Housing Application does not guarantee approval.

If you are approved, you will need to remove all belongings from your room within 48 hours.

You will also need to remember to turn in your student ID, and mailbox and room keys to the Housing and Residence Life Office located in LAC 227.

Failure to complete these steps may result in an Improper Checkout Fee.
