[+]Applying to SCC

Welcome to South Campus Commons! We appreciate your interest in living with us, and hope to have you as a future resident. The information contained below will help to guide you through the leasing process for the 2010-2011 lease term. You may also want to review our Leasing FAQ and Leasing Info pages for more detailed leasing priority and eligibility information for South Campus Commons applicants.

THE APPLICATION PROCESS
The 2010-2011 Application will be available on Wednesday, January 27th 2010 after 9:00am.

Application & Roommate Matching Form - Submitting an online application does not obligate you to lease with us, but completion of the form is required for you to have the opportunity to lease at SCC. No further paperwork or payments will be required of you until you decide to sign a lease. Please read the information below regarding the payments and paperwork required at the time of your lease signing 

GETTING READY FOR THE LEASING PROCESS
You should take the time to look over the following items so you can be prepared for the leasing process. If you do not have all of the required payments and paperwork on the leasing date you are issued, you will NOT be able to lease and may lose your space to the next waitlist applicant.

Continuing Guaranty of Lease - This establishes a guarantor for your lease: someone (usually a parent or guardian) who agrees to be responsible if you are ever unable to fulfill the financial obligations of your lease. It is similar to having a co-signer. The guaranty must be signed in front of a notary public, who will then complete the bottom portion of the form and apply the notary public stamp or seal to validate it. The guarantor should complete this document in blue or black ink and give you the original, notarized document. Because this form must be notarized, faxed or scanned copies are NOT accepted. All residents are required to have a guarantor who has provided all required information, and will not be allowed to sign a lease if they do not have a completed document at their leasing appointment. You must have this document in hand at your appointment, so please do not submit your guaranty of lease ahead of time!!

Lease Reservation and Application Fees - Your application fee ($25) and lease reservation fee ($300) will be due at your leasing appointment, when you sign your lease. Please be sure to have two separate checks or money orders, made out to South Campus Commons, ready for your leasing appointment.

2010-2011 Sample Lease - Review the sample lease with anyone you need to consult about your decision, such as parents or guarantors. The sample lease is the exact agreement you will sign at your leasing appointment. The only difference between the sample version and your individual lease is the designation of a specific room number and a corresponding rental rate.
