TERMS AND CONDITIONS
FOR LINCOLN PARK - 2014-2015 1. PAYMENT: The resident accepts responsibility for payment at the rates established by DePaul University (“DePaul”), which shall be available from the DePaul University Department of Housing Services (“Housing Services”) by April 1, 2014. This Agreement is not binding for new, incoming students until a prepayment of $200 or an approved waiver is received by DePaul. Agreements for new incoming students will not be processed without receipt of this $200 prepayment or a waiver approved by DePaul. The entire prepayment will be applied to any future charges posted to the resident’s DePaul financial account whether related to student housing or otherwise. No prepayment is required for continuing DePaul students.
2. TERM: The term of this Agreement shall be the Academic Year 2014-2015, or remaining portion thereof, beginning on the earlier of (a) a resident’s first date of occupancy or (b) September 6, 2014 for students in programs that run on quarters and August 19, 2014 for students in programs that run on semesters. This Agreement shall terminate 24 hours after the resident’s last spring quarter/semester final examination. Any student who lives in on-campus housing during the current academic year may apply separately for summer on-campus housing. On-campus housing during the break between the end of fall quarter/semester and the start of winter quarter/spring semester is not included in the term of this Agreement, except for residents of Centennial Hall, Sheffield Square, McCabe Hall, Vincent and Louise House, Sanctuary Hall, Sanctuary Townhomes and University Center. However, even for residents where on-campus housing during the winter break is included in the term of this Agreement (see list above); residents who are not returning for the winter quarter/spring semester are required to move out at the conclusion of the fall quarter/semester. Early arrivals and late departures must be approved in advance by DePaul/UC Facility Manager. Early arrivals and late departures may result in additional costs to the resident.

3. POLICIES: The Guide to Student Housing for Lincoln Park and the Guide to Student Housing for University Center, both available online at
offices.depaul.edu/housing, are hereby incorporated into and made part of this Agreement as applicable to residents in each location. The University Center Resident Handbook, available online at

This Agreement, together with the Guide to Student Housing, the DePaul Code of Student Responsibility, and, for residents in University Center, the University Center Resident Handbook, constitutes the full and complete terms and conditions of this Agreement. Additionally, residents must abide by all policies and procedures applicable to residents, including policies promulgated by Housing Services, Residential Education, the Dean of Students, and in the case of University Center, the
UC Facility Manager. DePaul/UC Facility Manager reserves the right to change these policies and procedures, including the documents mentioned above, at any time, provided such changes are announced via official bulletin boards, office publications, email, or websites.

4. LEGAL AND BINDING: This Agreement is not a lease (and as such is not subject to the restrictions of the Chicago Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance) nor does it provide any property interest. As indicated in Section 1 above, this Agreement obligates a resident to pay the designated room and board payment at the established rate for the entire term of this Agreement (or remaining portion from the effective date). If the resident does not check in and assume occupancy of the assigned space by the first day of classes for the first quarter or semester in which this Agreement shall be in effect, the resident may be reassigned to another space but, as explained in Section 5, may remain responsible for cancellation fees up to the amount of full room and board payment for the entire term of this Agreement. A resident who must arrive to campus after the scheduled move in date may hold their original space by notifying DePaul in writing prior to the effective date of this Agreement, though the resident will still be charged according to the start date of this Agreement. Submission of this Agreement acknowledges permission to release your name and contact information to assigned roommates. Submission also acknowledges that you have read, understand and agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement
