Residence Life Housing Appeals

Housing Appeals

St. Olaf Residence Life wants to ensure that all constituents that we serve are aware and knowledgeable about the Housing Appeal Process. All appeals must be formally submitted. The Housing Appeal Form is designed to address charges and fees assigned by Residence Life.

Closing Procedure

Room Occupancy Management

Students looking to appeal should first complete the Committee Appeal Form below.

All appeals must be submitted within 45-days of a charge being posted on to their account.

Committee Appeal Form

Once this form has been submitted, the Appeal Committee will review all submissions and give a decision based on the evidence provided.

Students will be notified of the appeal decision via their St. Olaf email account.

To be eligible to submit a Director Appeal Form, a student must have first appealed to the Appeals Committee or have been directed to complete a Director’s Appeal in writing from Residence Life.

Students must complete the Director’s Appeal Form within 5 Business Days of the Appeals Committee decision emailed to the stolaf.edu account and/or the personal email account on file. If the stolaf.edu email account is inactive and no personal email account is on file the 5 Business Days policy is still enforced.

Students looking to appeal should follow the link below:

Director Appeal Form

The Director’s Appeal decisions are final. Students will be notified of the appeal decision via their St. Olaf email account and/or personal email account on file.

Students are responsible for any charges on their student account. Students should regularly review their student account to see any charges added to their account.

Students who are denied their appeal must work with Student Accounts to pay the damages and/or fees added to their account. For more information about Billing and Payments, please visit the webpage below:
