If you are new to the property for the 2008 - 2009 leasing year, and you choose to pay by installments, the first payment is due by July 15, 2008. Your next installment payment is then due by the first of every month beginning September 1, 2008. You will not receive the keys to your apartment and bedroom if you do not make your first payment in full. Please contact us at 570-387-0220 if you have any questions regarding your specific lease.

Will you send me a bill each month for rent?
No, we do not send out bills. The lease stipulates the due dates for your rent. Typically, your rent is due on the first of every month. Please call the office at 570-387-0220 if you need further clarification. For your convenience, we do send out payment booklets for easy installment payment reminders.

Can I pay my bill with a credit card? Is there an extra charge?
Yes, you can pay with a credit card, but we do prefer that you pay with a check. We have a new procedure of paying by credit card or e-check on line. We accept MasterCard, American Express, Discover and Visa. There is a charge to use a credit card. You can make a payment with credit card or e-check by going to the "Residents Only" section of this webpage and then clicking on the "Credit Card Billing" button. The fee for a credit card varies on the type of card but usually costs around $20.00 for regular installment payments. E-check fee is $.99. You can call the office for more information or questions about the process.

When do I put down a deposit?
When you turn in your application, we require that you give us both the application fee $25.00 (non-refundable) and a one-time service fee of $200.00 at that time. If you cancel your application in writing within 48-hours, you will be refunded the $200.00 service fee. The service fee is only paid one time during a resident's tenure with the property.
Please note that the service fee is NOT a security deposit that you receive when you leave your apartment. This is a one-time fee paid to help fund operational costs on the property such as snow removal, fitness center supplies, clubhouse amenities, and landscaping costs.

What utilities are included in my rent?
Your rent includes electric, water, sewer, trash pick-up, extended basic cable (in each bedroom and the living room) and high speed internet. There is a designated cap of $170.00 per apartment for the electric bill. If the apartment goes over for that month, the difference will be split equally among the occupants of that specific apartment.

Can I request an apartment or roommates?
You can request a specific apartment and specific roommates, but there is no guarantee that we can honor your request due to previous requests. We do our best to try to accomodate your requests.

Is parking available?
There is ample parking available for our residents on the property for a fee of $15.00 per month for an academic lease (10-month) and $12.50 per month for an annual lease (12-month). Residents' guests may park on the property for a nominal fee of $2.00 per day and $3.00 for the entire weekend. A limited number of semesterly parking spots can be sold to guests for $90.00 per semester. Passes may be obtained in the office.

When can I move in?
You can move in during normal office hours on the move-in date listed on your leasing agreement. See the property homepage for more details or call the office at 570-387-0220 for semester specific dates. Your first rent installment must be received prior to your being able to move in (***No exceptions.***)
Back Up Top
Can I use my financial aid?
You should review any documentation concerning grants, loans, or scholarships with your parents and the financial aid office. Most grants and loans that would cover on-campus housing should cover the costs of living at Honeysuckle Student Apartments, but understand that the rent installments for your apartment are due on the 1st of each month despite any financial aid disbursement dates. Your first rent installment must be received prior to your being able to move in (***No exceptions.***)

If I am over 21, do I need to have a guarantor?
Yes. We request that you have a guarantor regardless of age. A guarantor must be over the age of 25. If you do not have a guarantor then you can pay a fee of one installment payment that we will keep in escrow until you move out and then it will be refunded.

How much more does it cost to stay here than on campus?
Because there are many different options for our housing and on campus housing, we would suggest that you research the two housing options and consider the differences.
