Important Information regarding Residence and COVID-19
Wilfrid Laurier University continues to respond to directives from Public Health related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the event that the university is required to implement physical distancing measures that significantly reduce our residence capacity for Fall 2020, we may be required to modify our residence guarantee policy to ensure that residents are living in a safe environment. We will promptly notify all applicants if there are changes to our service delivery model.
Residence Deposit
To ease the financial pressures felt by many students at this time, Laurier is waiving the $600 deposit that we typically require for residence applications.
Cancelling Your Residence Application
If you would like to cancel your residence application, you must send an email message to the Department of Residence at brantfordresidence@wlu.ca.
Terms of Your Residence Contract
If you apply to live in residence for the September term, the residence contract is for eight months. This means that you will be required to stay in residence for the January 2021 term as well.
Only students who successfully complete Level 5 in the September term will be allowed to move out of residence at the end of the program in December.
Meal Plans
If you receive a space in residence, you are required to purchase a residence convenience plan.
