Moving Out Information for Seniors

Graduating seniors are permitted to stay in their spring residence until 4:30 p.m. on Monday, May 27, 2013.

As you move out, please remember to leave your house in the same condition you found it in when you arrived in the fall.  University facilities staff will inspect your house immediately after you leave.  Fines will be assessed to your student account if they have to provide cleaning services, if there are damages or if furniture is missing.  For more information about fines go to http://www.wesleyan.edu/physicalplant/housing-guidelines.html.

The following guidelines will help prevent room, or common area damage charges:

  1. Remove all      personal items from your housing unit. Facilities will not hold on to      items left behind in units.
  2. Remove all      trash and debris.
  3. Clean your      refrigerator, stove top, counters, cupboards, inside of oven and the      kitchen floor.
  4. Clean your      bathroom tub/shower, sink, toilet, and bathroom floor.

Please try to place      all your trash in bags in these dumpsters or next to the curb in front of      your house.  Residents who place trash outside, not in bags, will be      charged a minimum of $100.  Additional charges will be assessed if      the cost of cleanup exceeds the amount of the fine. Apartment residents      should place all trash in a nearby dumpster.  Continue to use      curbside recycling bins for any recyclables.
