If the resident enters into a contract after the academic year has begun, the contract is binding from that date onward. Students must register during break periods to remain on campus when SU is closed. Residents are responsible for their room and common areas until both the resident and their belongings vacate the premises, checkout properly and end the agreement per its conditions. Termination of the Agreement The University reserves the right to cancel the resident’s agreement and administratively remove and/or relocate the resident without refund for any violation of contract terms or other University policies.
