Inclusions & conditions

Utility inclusions and usage charges require written confirmation.

General student housing; specific application approval required

  • Advertised total includes fixed mandatory recurring charges. The $25 base-to-total difference is observed arithmetic; its fee composition was not verified.
  • Immediate-move-in and Fall 2027 cards coexist; only explicitly Fall 2027 observations are included.
  • Shared and private room options must not be mixed. D1 SMART eligibility is conservatively flagged pending exact bedspace confirmation.
  • Official portal cross-check exposes an older 2026–27 subset; it cannot establish Fall 2027 dates, deposits or installment count for the marketing plans.
  • Public total-pricing markup corroborates a25 fixed-fee increment, but its labels remain unknown. The linked fee PNG could not be rendered in public research; no fee components or extra amounts inferred.
  • Exact lease start/end and installment count
  • Fee guide contents
  • Application, deposit and other upfront charges
  • Utility inclusions and usage billing
  • Parking and insurance prices
  • A1-2 studio occupancy-to-price mapping
