clotheslineRenter's Insurance

Although the University uses reasonable efforts to protect residents' property, the University is not in any way liable for any loss or damage to personal property because of fire, theft, or any other cause. University Police checks the outer facilities regularly for safety and security, but the use of Family Housing facilities is at the risk of each tenant. Residents are not covered by University insurance, so we strongly recommend that you obtain an apartment renter's insurance policy to cover your personal property.

Moving In: Picking Up Your Key

When you have signed your lease and paid for your first prorated month's rent and security deposit, you will get keys to your apartment. These keys MUST NOT be duplicated. If you lose your keys, you will be charged to replace the lock(s) and keys.

Apartment Lock Replacement

The locks in the apartment are replaced (recored) for various reasons. The most common:

  1. Not all keys are turned in by the previous tenants, which causes a security issue
  2. Someone loses their key(s).

If you lose your keys to your Family Housing apartment, you can get new keys and your locks can be replaced (recored) for a fee. Also, if you fail to return all of the keys when you move out of your apartment, you will be charged a recore fee, as this is a security risk for the next resident.

You can request a recore at anytime. However, be aware that if a recore occurs outside the normal working hours of the maintenance staff, it is an emergency recore and costs considerably more than a daytime recore. Before an emergency recore can be done, the maintenance staff must make sure that the recore is necessary.

For example: If both your keys and your ID are lost the recore is essential, as this is a serious security risk.
