All checkouts will need to be done by scheduling time with your Resident Assistant. During that time your RA will meet you at your room and inspect the space based on the room inventory form you turned in at the beginning of the year. Once everything has been inspected the RA will take your key.

Students who do not schedule at the time and check out with an RA will be fined for an improper checkout which is $50.
