Late payments
Disciplinary action may be taken if payment is not made in accordance with the payment schedule.
This may involve exclusion from residence, withholding of exam results, and the deferment of the awarding of any certificate, diploma or degree.
If you're away from campus
You will need to notify your Residential Assistant (RA) if you will be away from the halls for an extended period of time.
No refund or reduction in halls fees will generally be made for absences, though the Accommodation Manager can waive or reduce any accommodation liability on medical or personal grounds.
You may also be able to recover some of the money paid for accommodation and food during your vacation period if we are able to on sell your room to host conference guests.
Contingency fees
This is a form of security to ensure residents leave their room and the hall or flat in a reasonable condition at the end of their stay.
The fee is refundable only if a resident remains in residence for the entire length of their contract or other specified period negotiated with the Manager of Accommodation Services.
The contingency fee is refunded to a resident less any costs required to repair damages that cannot be attributed to wear and tear - much like a flatting situation.
