Summer Contract Terms and Conditions 

The Housing Contract is a legally binding agreement between you (“you” or “Resident”) and The University of Toledo (“University”). Once you have submitted and signed your housing application, you will be sent a lease agreement for your chosen summer session. Once your signed lease agreement is received, and it is accepted by the University, your Housing Contract is valid for the entire summer session term for which you apply, beginning with the first day of classes or the day a resident is assigned to a space if classes have already begun and can only be canceled in accordance with these terms and conditions of the Housing Contract. These terms and conditions outline both your responsibilities and those of the University.

HOUSING REQUIREMENT/ELIGIBILITY

Residency Requirement: Student must be registered for a summer class, workshop, or internship program for the duration of the contract.

MINOR CONSENT

All students who will be under the age 18 as of the first day of classes are required to complete a minor consent form.  By signing and submitting this form, the student states he/she has read and accepted the terms and conditions of the Housing Contract as outlined in the online housing application.  Parents/Guardians/Guarantees sign and accept responsibility for the terms of the contract until the student turns 18.   The student also agrees to abide by all University and residence hall policies and regulations.  Minor students will not be able to sign their housing contract until this form is submitted. The Minor Consent Form also gives consent in advance to medical treatment.

GENERAL RESIDENCE HALL REGULATIONS

Occupancy is a privilege extended to the Resident by the University. The continuation of this privilege is dependent upon the Residents’ reasonable and satisfactory personal conduct. You must abide by the Housing Contract, as well as the Residence Living Guide (residencelife.utoledo.edu), the Student Handbook (utoledo.edu/studentsaffairs/pdfs/handbook.pdf), the Student Code of Conduct, and all other University policies, procedures and rules.

PERIOD OF CONTRACT

Your Housing Contract is a legally binding agreement between you and the University. Your Housing Contract is valid for the selected summer session or as defined by your academic program unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms herein.

PAYMENT OF FEES

All fees, including but not limited to housing, tuition, and other associated fees, are due and payable as required by the University. Should Resident default in complying with any payment dates for any of Resident’s financial obligations, the University may seek any remedy in law or in equity, including specific performance of the Resident’s obligations or seek money damages. Resident agrees to pay all reasonable costs, attorney fees and expenses that are incurred by the University in enforcing this provision.

If you are not registered for a summer class within five days after the session begins, workshop, or internship program for the duration of the contract or become unregistered at any point in the semester, you are thereby automatically terminating the Housing Contract by your actions. You are required to immediately vacate the residential facilities. You will be financially responsible until the date you completely vacate the facilities and return your keys.
