Planning is Suite!
On December 4, 2019, Housing and Residential Programs teamed up with PSECU to help current residents start budgeting to pay for their housing deposit and residence hall expenses for the 2020-2021 school year. Current residents who stopped by the table in the SMC were able to win a free 43″ Samsung TV or one of five housing deposit waivers.
Students unfamiliar with paying the housing deposit were also given instructions on where to pay the non-refundable deposit within their MAX account. On the Main Menu, students will click on the Housing Deposit link towards the bottom of the page.
(The student view of MAX will look a little different, but the Housing Deposit link is still the second from the bottom.)
Students will have the option of paying with a credit card or an electronic check.
The non-refundable housing deposit guarantees a room for Fall 2020, but it is applied to the Spring 2021 bill. Simply, your Spring 2021 housing bill will be $200 less than your Fall 2020 bill because you’ve already paid the $200 the prior Spring.
64 residents stopped by the table and entered the drawing. Yalina Ramos was the lucky winner of the free TV! Congrats!
There’s Still Time To Pick A Room!
Open Room Selection Begins On March 19th!
Make sure to secure your suite for next school year! Open room selection begins on Tuesday March19th and will be open until March 29th. This selection will be available for the Fall 2019 Spring 2020 school year.
To secure your suite, log onto your MAX account and select Student Services. Once you are in the Student Services tab, click Housing and Dining and then select My Housing. This will take you to the housing portal where you can then select from the open rooms available!
If you need help or want to see an example of what the portal and steps will look like, you can find the room selection guide on our housing webpage by clicking here!
Happy Room Hunting Marauders!
