Service Requests
Submit A Service Request
If a resident is experiencing any issues in their living space (water leak, broken furniture, Wi-Fi connectivity, etc.) they may submit a service request for maintenance or repair at no cost, with the exception of bed height adjustments.
To provide a quick response, please include the following in your service request:
- Your preferred day of week (Monday - Friday) and time window (9-11 a.m. or 1-3 p.m.) for the work to be completed.
- A detailed description of the issue in order to better assist.
- Your service request details will be shared with your roommates so they are aware of the service request submission.
Submit and check the status of your service request on the Housing Portal.
To provide a quick response to your service request, maintenance may access your space when you are not present. Please clear a space for maintenance to work to ensure there is no contact with your personal belongings. Always remember to take your room keys with you if you leave your space as maintenance staff are trained to lock the door when they leave.

As a reminder, students are responsible for maintaining the cleanliness of their rooms, suites and apartments, including bathrooms and kitchens.
