Rules & Responsibilities


Our residence philosophy

It is essential that individuals respect the rights of their fellow residents, including the right to privacy, property, study and rest. All residents have equal opportunity to share common facilities. Only by respecting others’ rights can you expect to have your own rights respected. The spirit of the residence community is one of mutual respect and cooperation, with each resident having the right and obligation to remind fellow residents of their responsibilities if their behaviour departs from reasonable standards.

The Residence Community Living Guide is designed to make your introduction to residence easier by outlining our community’s expectations. In this document you will find:

  • guidelines for appropriate behaviour
  • university code of student conduct

  • emergency restrictions

Your Residence Agreement

The Residence Agreement is a contract between you and the university. The purpose of the agreement is to protect both you and the university by outlining the responsibilities of both parties.

Most students will have accepted their agreement through our online residence application process.
