Frequently Asked Questions

Campus Village has 690 beds and will house students as well as on-site management staff.

We do not send out billings each month for rent. All residents have the ability to create an online, secure account through resident portal. Residents also have the ability to set up a re-occurring payment through their resident portal. Please contact the office if you have questions on your online account, or how to create a profile.

You MUST have a Guarantor sign the lease agreement, regardless of student age. If you cannot provide a guarantor, you will be required to pay the first installment in addition to a security deposit equal to one installment (see your lease copy for installment amount). This deposit will remain as a deposit until the lease has been fulfilled. This deposit cannot be used to cover any installment amount or any other charges (including base rent, dining, parking, keys, cleaning, damages, or any other fees associated on your account).

Please refer to your lease agreement

No discount is provided if you pay in full

The beds are extra-long twin size in the 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom, Double Occupancy apartments/suites. All other apartments/suites have an 80 inch full/double sized bed.

Additional furniture can be brought in. The furniture included in the apartment MUST stay in the apartment as we have no place to store excess furniture.

We provide internet connections in each apartment for the residents. All you need to provide is an Ethernet cord.

Yes, however, we charge service fees.

Beginning fall 2010, dining plans are only required for UC Denver Freshman. ALL UC Denver Freshman will be required to choose either the Broncos Plan or the Nuggets Plan. All other residents have the option to choose any plan or opt out of the meal plans. The weekly allotted “all you care to eat” meals must be used within the week or they will be forfeited. Although non-refundable and non-transferable, unused flex spending balances can be carried over from month to month through the term of the lease. Any unused credit balance at the end of the lease term will be forfeited.

We do not have a deposit, but when you turn in your application we require that you provide us with the application fee $25 (non-refundable), community activities fee $25 (non-refundable) and a service fee of $100 (non-refundable) at that time.

Rent includes: fully furnished apartment, internet service, cable television, electricity, water, sewage and trash.

Yes, we offer parking on site and in an overflow lot at Campus Village. Parking is $90 per installment* for the paved lot and $80 for the overflow lot and is first come first served for prime spaces. *You can choose 10 or 12 installments depending on the unit type

Yes, but a request does not guarantee a roommate or an apartment. We do our best to match roommates, but their contracts must be the same along with other requests (themed living, etc.) You may request a roommate and apartment when you fill out your lease.

Move in is August 18, 2010. You will be sent a schedule for specific times to move in.

We are adjacent to campus.

See our sales office for specific pricing information.

You should review any documentation concerning grants, loans or scholarships with your parents and the financial aid office. Most loans that would cover on-campus housing should cover Campus Village at Auraria Student Apartments. It is ultimately up to you to do the research.

We offer twelve installment leases (August 18-July 31) as well as academic (10 installments) year leases (August 18-May 15).

A variety of floor plans from studio to four bedrooms and two bathrooms are available. See our sales office for more information.

We have a parking lot on site plus additional spaces available in an overflow lot on campus. Parking is $80-$90 per month, which is a great deal on campus. Most Auraria students pay $100-$150 now for parking that's not available 24/7.

That's up to you and your roommates! However, that person can't just move in. Guests are only permitted in your room for two consecutive nights.

Campus Village is a non-smoking facility, including the outside courtyards. You can smoke on the perimeter of the building but it's not permitted within the gated facility. If caught smoking it is a $150 fine, doubling in price each time thereafter.

If you're 21 or older, you may consume alcohol in your apartment but not in common areas. No one under 21 may consume alcohol on the premises. In addition to creating a fun environment, the Campus Village staff living on-site is there to enforce rules and create a safe environment. We expect all residents to obey the law and, if there are violations, leases may be terminated and the violations may be reported to the university or college.

Individual leases protect residents from situations like this. You are in no way responsible for the lease your roommate(s) signed. If your roommate is unable to complete his or her lease term, you will not be affected.

If you have someone lined up to live with you, that's fine. If we have a waiting list of students for the facility, we'll assign someone to live with you.

There are no curfews at Campus Village.

When you sign up for Campus Village, we will ask you to complete a questionnaire on lifestyles, study habits and interests. We will use that information to match up students, trying to ensure that you are placed with someone who will be compatible with you. Of course, we recognize that won't always work. When it doesn't, we'll do our best to accommodate requests for roommate reassignments, but we can't promise we'll always be able to do so. And, there will be a $200 fee for transferring.

No. See lease agreement.

All units are furnished with mini-blinds that must remain in place. Curtains can be added with tension rods only.

Yes, but you can't mount a storage rack on the ceiling. We also have bike storage on-site, both inside and outside.

Each unit has enough Internet lines for every person who will be living there.

Please contact the leasing office for apartment unit availability.

You'd have to find somebody to take over your lease during that time. You can also keep paying for your apartment and leave your belongings in it while studying abroad assuming your lease is still valid.

No waterbeds are allowed, and residents may not build loft units for their beds. See lease agreement for specifics.

We don't allow subleases. However, if you can find somebody to take over your lease, that's fine. Generally, leases will begin in August and end either 10 or 12 months after that. Some units may open up if students leave at the end of the semester, but we don't expect many of those.

Signing up to live at Campus Village is different from signing up for a dorm on another campus, because here you're actually signing a lease. Once you sign a lease, it's really hard to break - you could be liable for a big chunk of rent. If you sign a lease and need to request termination of the lease obligation, please see our lease buyout policy and submit the request to modify/terminate lease obligation form (can be found under documents section on property website).

We'll look at that on a case-by-case basis. In some cases, older students with a credit history can pay a deposit rather than getting a co-signer on their lease.

No, the monthly rent is the same whether you pay each month or in one lump sum.

Every student at Campus Village must get a co-signer or "guarantor" for their lease, unless you pay the entire year up front.

We urge students to do everything in their power to avoid being late with the rent, because you can lose your apartment quickly. That's why it's a good idea to pay your rent online and set up automatic withdrawal from your checking account on the first of the month, and you don't have to worry about paying late fees. Late fees kick in on the third day at 10AM. If you haven't paid by the end of the month, you'll be subject to eviction and Campus Village will take you to court to recover the rent you owe.

No, pets are not allowed at Campus Village.

Most loans that would cover on-campus housing should cover Campus Village. To find out for sure, you should review your loan requirements with the financial aid office.

There is no deadline for submitting applications. However, contracts are signed on a first-come, first-serve basis, so it is better to send in a contract sooner rather than later.

11 of the units at Campus Village are specially designed to fit the needs of disabled students. All the other units are handicap-adaptable.

Our rents are comparable with those facilities. But the advantage of Campus Village is that it's right next to the campus. You don't have to hop a shuttle bus or drive or take a long walk to get to class.

We used insulation, upgraded windows and acoustical treatments to muffle traffic noise. We encourage you to tour the building!

Campus Village is open year-round to residents – depending, of course, on the timeframe of your lease agreement. The cafe and convenience store will also be open year-round.

Campus Village is geared more toward singles; it's not set up as married student or couples housing. The rule is, "One head per bed" - so a married couple could not rent a studio at Campus Village. You can, however, rent a two-bedroom unit.

Yes, Campus Village will check the enrollment status of all students wishing to renew and sign a new lease agreement.

Your lease is your lease, and we would honor that even if you were not at Auraria any longer. However, Campus Village would not be able to renew your lease if you were no longer a student enrolled at any one of the three colleges/institutions at Auraria Campus. Campus Village is designed to provide housing for students at Auraria.

No, all the floors are co-ed.

You can request a specific unit, but we can't guarantee its availability. Units are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis. We have to account for a number of factors when assigning units. Of course, signing a contract early makes it easier for us to place you in the unit you want.

Men and women can live together in the suites, but all parties must come in together - Campus Village will not assign people of opposite sexes into one unit.

Please contact the University for specifics (303) 556-3399.

Yes, there is no minimum requirement of credit hours to live at Campus Village.

Any student, staff or faculty member from any of the three schools-UC Denver, Metro State or CCD - may live at Campus Village. In order to live at Campus Village, you must be affiliated with the Auraria Campus as Campus Village is not open to the public. First-year students at UCDHSC are required to live at Campus Village.

About half of the units are designed for freshman.

We will have 690 people, including students and on-site management staff.

You're guaranteed a space, but you won't have a specific reserved parking space.

We've done our best to create a safe and secure environment at Campus Village. The grounds are protected by key-card access, as is the building. The front desk is staffed 24 hours a day. There are emergency phones in each parking lot and at the gates into the courtyard. On-site staff will do rounds of the property, and they'll be equipped with cell phones to call for assistance if necessary. All the outside doors will be alarmed if they are propped open, the alarm will sound.

We don't have a clinic on-site, but there is a health facility located in the Plaza at the Auraria Campus. All on-site staff members are trained in CPR and First Aid.

In the case of emergency, we will call 911.

Yes, we will. Campus Village will host monthly programs and social events such as, movie nights, karaoke nights, Texas hold'em nights, educational speakers, workshops, picnics and many more events.

Yes!
