ROOM RESERVATION/DAMAGE
DEPOSIT
To secure housing at Abraham
Baldwin, all students who plan to live in a residence hall must submit a room
reservation/damage fee of $75 along with the housing application and terms of
agreement. This deposit covers the entire period of residency and will be
automatically transferred from semester to semester unless the student cancels
the reservation in writing ten (10) days prior to the first day of classes each
semester. The deposit is refundable as outlined in the terms of agreement.
Residents are responsible for
damage to college property. If there are outstanding damage assessments to
college property, the reservation/damage deposit will be forfeited. Should the
damage cost exceed the deposit, transcripts will be withheld until the debt is
cleared.
A refund of the
reservation/damage deposit will be made if the college Housing Office receives
notice that the student has canceled his plans to attend or to live on campus.
This notice must be received in writing by the Housing Office at least ten (10)
days prior to the beginning of the semester. Academic exclusion is not cause
for an automatic refund of the deposit. A student on academic probation is
cautioned to choose a guaranteed reservation or a refund before the ten-day
limit. Withdrawal from a residence hall during a semester is not reason for a
refund of room and board charges for the semester unless the student withdraws
from the college altogether.
If a student does not report
to the house director of his/her assigned residence hall by
The college may provide a
residence hall to be used for boarding students who desire to stay on campus
between semesters. A prorated rent will be charged.
