Townhouse Guidelines 2024-25

4 Cedarville’s townhouses — Rooke Hall and Gromacki Hall — are owned and operated by the University. Each townhouse unit houses six students in three furnished bedrooms. Each unit also shares two bathrooms, a full kitchen, washer and dryer, and a furnished living room. In addition, each townhouse unit has wireless access. Students living in the townhouses are not required to purchase a meal plan. However, a meal plan can be purchased, and the options are available at cedarville.edu/cashiers. The following guidelines support the safety and security of residents, ensure the maintenance of the buildings, and provide instruction for students in community living. PERSONAL HEALTH AND SAFETY Students are expected to assume responsibility for their own personal care. Ohio law and general health practices influence some of our guidelines for community health. Each student is required to complete the Hepatitis B/ Meningitis Vaccination Status Form and provide verification of immunity from MMR as a prerequisite for living in the University-operated townhouses. These policies (required for residential students) and additional information can be found at cedarville.edu/ums. TOWNHOUSE OPENINGS AND CLOSINGS The University publishes the dates for the start of each term, including when the students can take occupancy of the townhouses. Students should plan accordingly. Students who must arrive early for the term should receive permission in advance by contacting Residence Life. There is a charge of $50 per day for arriving prior to the published move-in date. Move-In (Fall Semester) — The townhouses are available for occupancy the Friday of Getting Started Weekend. Students are permitted to remain in the townhouses during all breaks except Christmas Break. Additional charges will apply for students who are approved to stay through the summer. Move-Out (Spring Semester) — Students living in the townhouses (and not accepted to stay through the summer) should be completely moved out by 8 p.m. on the day of commencement. Failure to be moved out by this time will result in a $50 fine for each day or portion of it. Residence hall curfew policies do not apply to townhouse residents. TOWNHOUSE AGREEMENT Upon occupancy of the townhouse unit, each individual student, along with the Residence Life staff, is required to sign a Residence Hall Agreement that verifies the condition of the townhouse and its furnishings. When students move out of the townhouse unit at the end of either semester, the townhouse should be inspected by a Residence Life staff member. To avoid fines, personal property should be removed from the townhouse, the townhouse should be clean, and the room furniture should be returned to an acceptable layout. Minimum fines of at least $100 per person will be assessed for townhouses that have been damaged or are not left clean.
