Parents this is an absolute nightmare. They will over charge you and not respond. Finding a needle in a haystack is easier than reaching any adult that works in billing and you will need them because you will be constantly overcharged. I was charged from other rooms after they had moved out and my son never stayed in any other room but the same one he moved into after leaving the freshman dorm. Please parent do not send you child there no matter the hype or the way they dress it up .
