Students are required to check out of their room in person with a Residence Life staff member. Checkout procedures include, but are not limited to, scheduling an appointment in advance, honoring the time of their appointment, completing an on-site inspection of the room, returning all residence hall keys (room key and suite key). Students must thoroughly clean their room and remove all personal items, trash, and/or recyclables before the on-site room inspection. For residence hall closings during spring (April), summer (August), or winter (December) intersessions, New York students are expected to check out no later than noon on the Saturday following graduation, or completion of their last class prior to externship, or the date they are no longer enrolled in classes (including failure due to absences). California students must check out between 9 a.m. and noon on the Saturday following graduation, or completion of their last class prior to externship, or the date they are no longer enrolled in classes (including failure due to absences).
