Background
A. MTI Prep operates a student residence dormitory in order to provide on-campus housing to enrolled students during specified times of the academic year.
B. Student is a prospective or enrolled student that either intends to enroll or remain enrolled in the School for the duration of the term of this Agreement.
C. Student has previously submitted an application to School expressing a desire to occupy and utilize an assigned space in one of the School's dormitories, and Student understands that the School shall assign the particular facility and room (the "Space") subsequent to Student's execution of this Agreement.
D. Student is required to execute this Agreement in order to secure a Space, and School and Student enter into this legally binding Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions of their agreement governing Student's occupancy and use of the Space.

In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, Student agrees to abide by the written mandatory housing guidelines provided and the payment terms. In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, Student understands and agrees that by signing this Agreement, you are reserving a space and agree to abide by the written mandatory housing guidelines provided to you and the payment terms.

Effective Date
This Agreement becomes effective and enforceable immediately upon the Effective Date, which is the date Student electronically signs this Agreement. However, Student is not assured of an assigned Space unless and until Student has paid to the School the required prepaid rent in accordance with this Agreement, or School has recognized such payment as deferred.

Grant of Use
In exchange for Student’s payments to School in accordance with this Agreement, and subject to all of its terms, conditions, and restrictions, School grants conditional authorization to Student to occupy and use the Space, to be determined and assigned to Student within the School’s sole discretion. Student must be enrolled in the School in order to be eligible for, or to remain in, School housing. Student’s occupancy of the Space shall officially begin when the Student signs for the keys to his/her assigned Space.

Entering into this Agreement legally obligates Student to make payment to School for the assigned Space, regardless of any Student-indicated preferences concerning a specific room type, location, or roommate. School's assignment of a Space to Student, and Student’s continued occupancy of a Space, are contingent upon Student’s final admission to the School and timely payment of all charges and fees to School, including those due under this Agreement.

The School (or their designee), in his/her sole and absolute discretion, may cancel this Agreement or change Student’s Space assignment in the interest of order, discipline, health, safety, security, maximum utilization of Schools facilities and resources, and/or educational delivery, or for the Student’s failure to pay rent or charges in a timely manner.

The housing fee is non-refundable
If a Student moves out early, the cost will remain the same. No prorations or refunds will be allowed. The only extra cost to this agreement will be if a Student exceeds the allotted time to complete his/her educational program. In this case, McDougle Technical Institute Preparatory will charge on a month by month basis for the remainder of the Student’s stay. There is a $250.00 deposit for breakage, damage or misuse of dorm facility.

By Signing this Application, Student is making a student housing reservation and agrees to abide by the payment terms and  housing guidelines.
