University Housing Policies

University Housing policies help create a secure and appropriate living environment for all students and residents. Through the active participation of all residents and their guests in abiding by the policies, a community, conducive to living, learning, and personal growth is established. Therefore, residents are responsible for demonstrating their understanding of these policies, in addition to the Student Code of Conduct, Academic Integrity and Computer, Internet and Electronic Communications.

Should you choose to disregard any of the stated University Housing policies, or the Student Code of Conduct, elements of the conduct process may be administered to hold you accountable for your actions. Each resident is responsible for the actions of their guests and the actions that take place within their room. Residents and guests must comply with the directives of university personnel, including hall staff, university police officers, and community emergency agencies while in the halls and around the surrounding properties. If you have any questions, contact your residence hall staff.

Alcohol Policy

Alcohol Policy

All residents and guests are prohibited from possessing or consuming alcohol; or, hosting or being in the presence of others consuming alcohol in any of ASU’s residential communities or on ASU grounds. In addition, all provisions of Arizona state law regarding alcohol are in effect at all times, including but not limited to the minor in consumption (returning to the hall intoxicated), minor in possession, and public consumption laws. Devices designed for rapid consumption of alcohol (e.g., beer bongs, funnels, etc.) are prohibited and subject to confiscation. Kegs and other common source containers are prohibited. Due to health risks and the negative message sent to minors, residents are not permitted to possess/decorate their rooms with empty alcohol containers and or paraphernalia (e.g. neon signs, shot glasses, alcohol boxes, etc.). This includes anyone who is of legal drinking age and over.

Bicycles

Bicycles

University Housing does not permit bicycle storage in the hallways; locked bicycles to exterior stair rails or bicycles blocking fire escapes. Students should lock bicycles to bicycle racks located adjacent to each residence hall. Bicycle storage is not permitted in University Housing facilities unless the space is designated as an official bicycle storage space.

Chronic Misbehavior

Chronic Misbehavior

Residents are prohibited from establishing an unacceptable pattern of misconduct. An unacceptable pattern of misconduct occurs when they are frequently documented for violations of policy. Chronic misbehavior may result in termination of Housing License Agreement and removal from University Housing without reimbursement.

Controlled Substances/Illegal Drugs & Paraphernalia

Controlled Substances/Illegal Drugs & Paraphernalia

Arizona state law and university policy prohibits student involvement in the use, possession, distribution, presence of or sale of illegal drugs and/or paraphernalia. Refer to the Student Code of Conduct for more information. Any violation of this policy may result in immediate termination of your University Housing license agreement.

Cooking

Cooking

Cooking in student rooms is allowed where kitchen facilities are a standard part of the room’s facilities, and in community cooking locations. Microwaves are permitted when limited to 700-watt usage. Only small refrigerators (no more than 4.0 cubic ft) are allowed in residence hall rooms unless otherwise provided by University Housing. All cooking in kitchen facilities must be monitored at all times. Students who fail to clean up after cooking will be held accountable according to our Health and Safety expectations. University Housing is committed to sustaining our environment, therefore encourages students to utilize energy-star appliances. Any appliances that have an exposed red coil heating element are prohibited.
Note: Due to safety concerns, students are prohibited from lighting stove pilot lights and flipping breaker box switches. If you smell natural gas, call a University Housing staff member immediately. Please submit a work request online .

Cooperation and Compliance

Cooperation and Compliance

Students are expected to provide accurate and truthful information and to comply with the directions of university officials or agents (which include hall staff, law enforcement, or security officers) who are acting in good faith and in the performance of their duties.

Courtesy and Quiet Hours

Courtesy and Quiet Hours

University Housing has two policies related to noise in the common and private areas of the residence halls for the maintenance of an atmosphere conducive to academic success: courtesy hours and quiet hours. Noise in common areas, including balconies, must be kept to a minimum. Noise made inside your room should not be audible outside of your room.

Courtesy Hours: Courtesy hours are in effect at all times in the residence halls. You have the right to ask others to refrain from making noise when that noise interferes with your study, sleep, or general use of your room. If a resident requests another resident to lower the volume or reduce the amount of noise, the expectation is to accommodate the request and reduce the amount of noise.

Quiet Hours: These are enforced in the residence hall as a supplement to the courtesy hours.

Quiet hours are in effect in all residence halls from 9 p.m. - 8 a.m. Sunday through Thursday and from 1 a.m. – 8 a.m. on Friday and Saturday. During finals week, quiet hours are in effect 24 hours a day, beginning on the last day of classes at 9:00 p.m. Individual floors and/or halls may add restrictions on noise, but may not reduce what is noted above.

Damage/Vandalism

Damage/Vandalism

Residents are prohibited from vandalizing, damaging, or destroying university or other individuals’ property. Any damages to the community will be billed back to the individuals who caused the damage or split among the residents that live in that community. Any damages that are not listed on the room inspection report (RIR) at the time of check-in will be billed to your student account at the time of repair or check-out. Refer to the Student Code of Conduct (See section G, 1l: Restitution) for more information.

Network Usage

Network Usage

By using campus wired and wireless networks, you are obligated to operate under the ASU Acceptable Usage Policy.

High-speed access to the ASU campus network is provided to each student residing on campus. Each resident is prohibited from setting up their own wireless access point in their residence hall room, as these devices directly conflict with the ASU wireless network and degrade its performance. Wireless video streaming devices like the Google Chromecast or Amazon FireStick are not supported by the ASU wireless network, and are considered Prohibited Items. Video streaming devices that have an Ethernet port, such as the Roku 3 or Apple TV are permitted, but only if connected directly to the network port in your room. Wireless printers are also not supported by the ASU wireless network, and will only function if directly connected to a personal computer with a printer or Ethernet cable. The wireless broadcast feature in a printer, such as “Direct Print”, must also be manually disabled to avoid interference with the ASU wireless network.

Gaming devices like the XBOX, PlayStation and the Wii are allowed. For best performance, we strongly recommend connecting consoles directly to the network port in your room.

All residents will be held responsible for actions originating from their network devices, computers, printers or accounts. For specific questions or assistance regarding residential technology, please call the ASU Experience Center’s dedicated residential technology support line at 480-965-8565. For assistance with anything else, please contact the Experience Center’s main line at 1-855-278-5080 or you can visit your My ASU service center to submit a request online, live chat with an agent, or to get more information from our knowledge base articles.

Service/emotional support animals that are found to be aggressive, create a nuisance, sanitation concerns, or threaten the safety of others will not be allowed to remain in the hall.

All roommates (and/or suitemates) need to approve of the animal through written confirmation. If all occupants of the shared space are not in agreement, the student with the animal will be administratively relocated to another unit.

Family Housing Pet Policy:

We strongly discourage animals in the houses. Only a Family Housing license holder may request to have a pet. A license holder is allowed a maximum of two (2) animals per family house. University Housing, at its sole discretion, may deny any request for a pet. If the license holder is granted a permission to have pet(s), prior to the animal(s) moving into the house, the license holder is responsible for paying a pet fee of $200.00 per semester all of which is non-refundable. In addition to the pet(s) fee, all license holders must provide documentation of the following for each animal: 1) spayed or neutered 2) current vaccination of rabies 3) dog licensure through Maricopa County. All animal breeds categorized as an aggressive breed are prohibited. All animals(s) must be indoor pets. Failure to seek approval prior to obtaining an animal may result in your pet being denied and possible cause for license agreement termination. Feeding of any stray animal(s) owned or free roaming is strictly prohibited. This means that all water and food for authorized animals must remain indoors at all times.

University Housing at any time may revoke a pet approval without notice if an emergency situation concerning the animal(s) arises or applicable animal control laws or regulations mandate removal, isolation or quarantine of the animal(s). Upon notice, any unauthorized animal shall be removed immediately from the residence. We may turn the pet over to a humane society or local authority. We will return the pet to you upon request if it has not already been turned over to a humane society or local authority. We have no lien on the pet for any purpose; but you agree to pay for reasonable care and kenneling charges for such pet. If you do not pick up the pet within two (2) days after removal, the pet shall be deemed abandoned. If you or your guests with or without knowledge or permission violate this section you may be charged for damages, receive a fine, be evicted, and/or subjected to other remedies of this License.

Violation of this waiver shall result in charges, damages, fines, eviction and/or remedies of this License. Situations that would warrant this action may include the animal(s) becoming annoying, bothersome, or in any way a nuisance to other residents or interfering with Management business including, but not limited to, completion of work order or preventative maintenance.
  6. License holder agrees that all pet(s) must be kept inside at all times except when on a leash and under the control of the license holder or responsible adult. It is the responsibility of the license holder to ensure that pet droppings are disposed of properly. This includes, regularly changing litter or cages and cleaning up pet droppings outside. Any person owning, possessing, harboring, or having the care, charge, control or custody of any dog shall immediately remove and thereafter dispose of any fecal matter deposited by the dog on a public or private property.
