  • What if I need Maintenance in my bedroom or apartment?

    • Non-emergency service requests can be submitted in any of the following ways:

      • Stop by the office and our staff will complete a University Village service request form.
      • E-mail your maintenance request to the apartment community (please be as specific as possible regarding the location and actual problem). Our goal is to respond to work orders within 48 hours!
      • Submit a Service Request online. Go to your property's web site and select "Submit Service Request" in the "Residents" section.

      For emergency situations (water leaks, and back-up's, non-functioning AC/heat during weather extremes, non-functioning refrigerators, electrical outages, gas leaks and fire) we are available 24/7!

      During business hours, call the community office – do NOT leave a message or send an email. After hours, call the community office and the prompts will lead you to an operator that will page the appropriate property personnel to respond to your situation.

  • Is there insurance coverage in the event of a fire, theft or natural causes?

    • Residents or guest's personal property and vehicles are not insured under the apartment lease agreement unless due to management negligence. We strongly recommend that residents purchase insurance against loss or damage due to fire, theft, vandalism, rain, water, criminal negligent acts of others or any other cause. Renter's insurance is relatively inexpensive (typically less than $20/month) and can often be secured through your automobile insurance carrier (first check your parent's home-owner's policy).

  • What is installment rent?

    • Installment rent is the total amount of rent to be paid over your lease term divided into an equal number of payments of the same amount.
