Remember that your Residential License Agreement covers the full academic year. However, if for any reason the need arises for you to move out of the residence hall, contact the Dean immediately and follow all check-out procedures. Moving out early may result in financial penalties es per the Residential Licence.

Checking out of the Residence Halls:

• Contact your RA and make an appointment to check out of your room.
• Your room must be clean and empty of all belongings (cleaning supplies and vacuum cleaners may be available for your use).
• After your room is cleaned and your belongings are removed, both you and the RA will examine the condition of your room. Any damages will be noted on the Room Condition Inventory form. If there are damages, charges will be deducted from your room deposit if you are not returning.
• Return your room key, forwarding address card, and overnight leave to your RA. Complete your portion of the Room Condition Inventory and sign it verifying that the information is accurate.
• As stated above, payment for damage charges will be deducted form your room deposit. If this amount exceeds the deposit, or drops below the minimum balance and you are planning on returning to the residence halls, you will be asked to bring the account to the $100.00 limit before moving in again.

Failure to properly check out using the above procedures will result in forfeiture of the $100.00 room deposit.

Storage Space
Storage is limited to out-of-state and international students and is available only at your own risk. LSU is not responsible for loss or damage. Items not called for within four months will be discarded. Storage is not available for non-returning students.

Closing Schedule
Your Residential License Agreement ends at 12:00 noon on the Friday of finals of spring quarter. You must be checked out of your room by that time. Only residents involved with Commencement, Food Service, or Residence Life will be allowed to stay beyond this time. Check-out time for these students is 2:00 p.m. on Monday after commencement. $25 a day will be charged if resident has not moved out by the posted time. Any exceptions to this must be arranged through your Dean. If belongings remain in the room, but student is not present, regular charges will continue. .

Deposit Refunds
Any student who fails to check out of the residence halls will forfeit his/her deposit. Deposits will be refunded to those who have checked out and are not returning to the halls for the following term/quarter. However, should you have an outstanding balance with the University, your deposit will be applied to your account.
