A guaranty of lease is required for every on-campus lease. This form is equivalent to a co-signer. Each resident must have their parent sign and notarize this form. Each resident must turn in a guaranty of lease before anyone in the apartment will be allowed to move in.

When 2 or more people sign a lease for the same apartment, they are all equally responsible for the total amount of the lease. If one person defaults on the lease, everyone is responsible and could be liable for the payments.

Subleasing is allowed. Each roommate has to sign the sublease forms, a $100 fee must be paid, & the new roommate must provide a guaranty of lease. Subleasing your apartment does not take you off the lease completely.
