• The Housing Office does not have a contract or written agreement with the landlords advertised on the database. The agreement is set between the landlord and the student directly 鈥� the Housing Office works as an intermediary (much as a real estate agency would) to connect students and landlords. The Housing Office does not receive any payment or commission from the landlords listed in the database, and does not require payment from students for the use of the database.
• Students have access to the Housing Database for the purpose of viewing and selecting available offers. All contact with the landlord is established through the Housing Office team.
• Students housed through the Housing Office make a commitment for a minimum of one semester. Students are encouraged to contact their landlord at the end of each semester to check on the renewal of their rental agreement. When students decide to leave, their departure must coincide with the end of a semester or summer session (at the end of the final exams). They must give one month鈥檚 notice at minimum, or the specific notice agreed upon in your rental contract.
• Students with pets must understand that most landlords will prioritize applications from tenants without pets, therefore the properties available to them may be limited. Landlords may require that students with pets provide a two-month security deposit.
• Security deposits (equivalent to one month鈥檚 rent) and the first month's rent must be paid in full by the day you move in. Landlords may require the deposit in advance if you are securing the apartments a few months before move-in (for example. in the summer ahead of the Fall semester). The first month's rent should be paid at its pro-rated rate. (For example, if you enter your apartment mid-month, your first month rent should be half of the rent.) Students should always request and keep rent receipts.
• Some landlords may ask you to sign a rental agreement that provides additional conditions (or different conditions) than the Housing Database regulations. Please make sure to carefully read your rental agreement before signing it, and contact the Housing Office should you wish to review it with a staff member. This rental agreement will supersede any Housing Database regulations, so make sure that you know what you are agreeing to.

• French law requires that all renters have housing insurance. All students housed by the Housing Office must provide their landlords with a copy of their insurance attestation before moving in. All incoming students need to secure their housing insurance through an insurance company. Returning students can secure housing insurance through their bank account. Students can contact the Housing Office if they have any questions.
• Students are responsible for ensuring that they complete a move-in walkthrough and/or take detailed photos and videos of their accommodation in its move-in state. The Housing Office will not be able to assist in contesting deductions at move-out if there are no records from the move-in procedure.

• Students are responsible for punctually paying their rent, at the first of every month, directly to the landlord, via the method agreed upon with the landlord. Students should always request a rent receipt.
• Students are responsible for maintaining their apartment in the state in which they rented it. If any problems arise, they must contact the Housing Office and/or their landlord immediately.
• If a student has outstanding housing-related claims or debts (such as an unpaid electricity bill, unpaid rent or unpaid damages to an apartment), a hold will be placed on the student鈥檚 account preventing retrieval of grade reports, transcripts and diplomas until the debt has been settled and the Housing Office has received confirmation from the landlord.
• Students are not permitted to sublet their accommodation or advertise it on rental websites (such as Airbnb). Exceptions can only be made if the student can provide explicit written approval from their landlord to sublet, or if a provision for subletting is included in their signed rental contract. The Housing Office may contact the landlord for confirmation in these cases. When subletting is allowed, students must follow the conditions of subletting outlined by their landlord.
• Students should note that by using the database services, they agree to the Housing Office disclosing their personal email address and mobile telephone number, as well as a confirmation of whether or not the student is continuing at 91视频 the following semester, to the student鈥檚 current landlord upon request.
• The University's standard of conduct, as outlined in the Student Handbook, applies to all students who have used the Housing Office's services. Failure to abide by the standard of conduct or any violations of the housing regulations can lead to disciplinary action.

• If moving out at the end of a semester, students must give the landlord one month's written notice (unless specified differently in their rental contract), sent by registered mail (lettre recommand茅e avec accus茅 de r茅ception).听 The Housing Office provides a move-out letter template which can be found in our Housing Resources page.

The Housing Office is unable to help students recuperate their deposit if this procedure has not been followed. Landlords may also terminate a rental agreement at the end of a semester by giving the student one month鈥檚 notice.

• Students must also inform the Housing Office of their departure from the apartment so that it can be made available to other students.
• Should students leave before the agreed upon minimum lease period of one semester (and/or without providing the proper notice) in violation of the housing regulations and/or their rental contract, the Housing Office cannot guarantee assistance in the refunding of their full deposit.
• Security deposits are used to cover outstanding bills and damages and, thus, may NEVER serve as the last month's rent, which is illegal in France. The landlord has up to two months after your departure to assess any damages that need to be fixed before they are required to return your deposit.
• Housing obtained through the database may be "passed on" to other 91视频 students but ONLY after written notification sent to the Housing Office via email. Housing obtained through the Housing Database may never be 鈥減assed on鈥� to individuals who are not current 91视频 students.
• After giving the landlord notice of departure, students are responsible for showing their housing, in a timely manner, to other 91视频 students who contact them through the Housing Office
