Hope College
Housing Policy
All degree-seeking students at Hope College will live in college-owned housing
unless granted permission to live off-campus or to commute daily from their
parent's home. Degree-seeking students are those students who are pursuing
an academic degree from Hope College. Students who are part-time (enrolled
for 1-11 credits) for both semesters of the 2009-2010 academic year, married
(proof required), or 23 years of age by August 14, 2009, will be exempt from
this requirement provided they follow the application procedure. The college
reserves the right to reject off-campus applications submitted by students
who have been subject to the college disciplinary actions.
Housing
Policy Rationale
Hope College is committed to providing students with a liberal arts education
within the context of the historic Christian faith. The College believes that
the residential component is an integral part of this education. Therefore,
most students should expect to live in college residential facilities for at
least their first three years of enrollment. This will enable students to realize
the maximum benefit of the faculty, their fellow students, and the offerings
of the college. As students interact in these settings, they will learn and
grow from the different values, life experiences, classes, activities and ideas
that are present in the Hope College community. Underclass students can benefit
from the leadership and role modeling of upperclass students, the wide range
of ideas, programs and activities which take place in the residence, and the
help they receive from members of the Residential Life staff. Upperclass students
can grow as they serve as role models, participate in activities geared to
their interests, and live in a variety of independent situations, all within
the context of the on-campus residential experience.
The
Housing Agreement
Your housing agreement is a binding document for the entire academic year.
You sign this document when you arrive on campus and move in. Make sure you
read this carefully so you understand all of the information. It is imperative
that you do not sign a lease for off-campus housing unless you know for sure
that you have been granted off-campus permission. You will NOT be released
from your Housing Agreement. |
