How to join Sutton Place

Are you looking for housing for next semester? Next year? Summer? Now? In order to become a resident of Sutton Place, the following steps are suggested:

1. Contact the manager to make sure a room is available for the time period you need. Flexible leases are possible when rooms are available, although expect to pay a bit more per month than if you signed a semester or year lease.

2. Visit the house. The manager can arrange to show you around, or feel free any time to stop by and ring the doorbell. (If you are not in the area, look at pictures of the house.)

3. Familiarize yourself with the house rules and Sutton Place constitution.

4. Turn in an application to the manager. Preferably send the competed application as a Microsoft Word attachment via e-mail.

5. The manager or a house member will arrange an interview for you with several house members, so that both sides can ask and answer questions and determine together whether Sutton Place would be a good match for you. (This step can be conducted by e-mail or phone if necessary.)

6. The manager will contact you about whether Sutton residents feel they would like to invite you to join the house.

7. Sign a lease and pay a deposit. Rooms cannot be guaranteed unless a lease is signed and a deposit paid.
