What will be the contract term? Can I stay in my suite during breaks?
Contracts are for the entire academic year. Suites@201 residents will be able to stay in their suite during academic year breaks (Thanksgiving, winter, spring) at no additional cost; availability of winter break housing is tied to having an active contract for the spring semester.
What is the cost?
The cost for 2011-12 is $5280 (you will be billed $2640 via your student account on your first fall UWSP bill and on your first spring UWSP bill). All residents will be required to sign a full academic year contract (unlike other halls, you will not be allowed to “opt out” of your contract at the end of the fall semester). We anticipate that there will be a slight increase in cost for 2012-13.
Break housing is included in this price. There is a $125 housing prepayment required at the time you sign up for the Suites@201; this prepayment is applied to your spring housing costs.
Is a meal plan be required?
Participation in the meal plan will not be mandatory. However, you may select from any of the "regular" meal plans or select an "off-campus" meal plan if desired. Information about the meal plans is available from Dining Services.
Are laundry facilities offered?
There is a laundry available on each floor and an additional laundry on the first floor.
Are suites co-ed?
At this time, individual suites will be single-sex, but there will be suites of either gender on all floors.
