Damage Charges

Damage Charges

During check-out, RLO staff members complete the Check-Out portion of the RCR for each student.  Any changes to the state of the room that occurred from the time a student checks-in until they check-out will be considered as damage.  RLO professional staff will assess a damage charge for these damages.  Damages that will result in charges include, but are not limited to:

  • Structural damage (e.g. holes in wall, chipped paint, carpet damage)
  • Damage to room fixtures (lights, smoke detector, outlets, etc.)
  • Damage to room furniture (partial damage that can be repaired or damages that result in furniture replacement)
  • Missing furniture

For a full list of furniture replacement costs, please see Room Condition Guidelines & Damage Charges in the Residence Life Policies and Procedures.
