Yes. The only exception is the HOPE Scholarship, which can only be used toward tuition and books. If you want to use your financial aid to pay for housing, simply contact KSU Housing to file the appropriate paperwork. New paperwork is due prior to the beginning of each term. We offer this for Fall and Spring terms only, not summer.

Yes. All students must be enrolled and taking classes at the time they are living on campus. If you are academically dismissed from the University, you will be asked to vacate your apartment. If you are not taking classes during a semester for any reason, you will be asked to vacate your apartment. Please note, however, that you are still responsible to fulfill your housing contract obligation. Not taking classes does not mean you get out of your contract. The only exception to this rule is during the Summer, when students who have stayed with us during the regular academic year are allowed to remain in their rooms over the Summer, regardless of whether or not they are taking classes.

Once you sign the Housing Contract you have a contractual obligation to pay for the full contract. In the event that you have to vacate your apartment, you may find an appropriate person to take over your contract (reassignment) or you may request to terminate your contract (termination). There is a fee to reassign your contract and you are rent-responsible until you find someone to take over your contract. There is a termination fee that is due should you request a termination fee. Discuss both options with the Operations Manager at your community and decide what is best for your situation.

The Residence Life Fee is paid annually by all residential students for programming and activities organized by the Residence Life Department for residential students. All residents are encouraged to get involved in the RHA or with their Community Councils and provide input on programs and services offered and how the fee is used. To find out how to get involved with RHA or Community Council, contact your RA or visit http://www.kennesaw.edu/residencelife/handbook.pdf

We offer a free lock out amnesty period the beginning of the Fall and Spring semesters.

DAY: stop by your community office with your photo ID and you will be issued a temporary card/key. NIGHT: call your RA or on call emergency maintenance to gain access. You must have a photo ID. There is a $25 fee for each lock out day or night after the amnesty period is over. If you lose your keys and need a replacement key or key card, you can request these at the leasing office.
