Student housing is available for out of town students. We rent fully furnished two bedroom, 2 bathroom (some apartments have 2 1/2 bath) apartments. Each apartment includes full kitchens, dishes, beds, and bedspread, dining room, living room, wireless internet, and cable tv. It is recommended to bring a set of single sheets and towels; a limited amount is provided in the apartments.
Weekly Rent
Aparments rent by the week and include all utilities. You are responsible for food, laundry, and cleaning supplies.
Rent is $100 per week and is required to be prepaid within 14 days before your class start date. There will be a total of 4 people in each apartment. In rare instances, there could be up to 5 people in each apartment.
Students are welcome to stay in the student housing after graduation to pursue employment opportunities for $125 per week, space permitting. Students may remain in student housing after graduation IF & ONLY: THERE HAVE BEEN NO NOTED VIOLTATIONS OF STUDENT HOUSING RULES, POLICE CALLS, ETC. The Travel Academy will make the final decision to allow students to remain in the student housing after graduation.
Apartment Rules
We do not own the apartment complex, we only rent out a few apartments and your neighbors will be those who live there year round. We ask that all students remain courteous and respectful when they are staying at the apartments.
During your stay in the student housing, if there are any police calls or calls to the Resident Assistant that hold strong merit such as noise violations/loud parties, underage drinking, destroying of property, or any other situations against the stduent housing rules, each student in violation will be charged $100 per incident and you maybe asked to vacate your apartment immediately. The Travel Academy is strict on ensuring students are staying in a safe and secure environment allowing each student to feel at home.
The Travel Academy encourages students to use their own discretion when participating in such activities, and encourages students to call the police in emergency situations. Students calling the police in emergency situations wil not be charged the $100. Students will only be charged $100 for violations of the student housing rules.
There are no outside or overnight guests allowed in the apartment at any time; unless you are moving a student in or out but after move is complete outside guests must leave the apartment. Only current students of The Travel Academy are permitted in the apartment. We do this for the safety of the students and their personal property.
The City of Eagan, MN has a quiet policy from 10p-7a and we ask that all students be respectful of roommates and neighbors during this time. Any noises disturbing your neighbors during this time could result in them contacting the police.
Apartments must be kept in a clean "move-in" condition at all times. Please do not hang anything on the walls, move furniture or remove items from the apartment. Everything in there is for your use as well as the use of future students of The Travel Academy.
Security Deposit
An additional $250 for the security deposit is also required to hold your spot for student housing and held through the duration of your class. The security deposit is due 14 days before your class start date. The security deposit will be returned within 30 days from your graduation date unless you remain in the student housing after graduation as long as you leave your apartment in the same condition as you moved in.
If you remain in the student housing as a graduate and then move out, your security deposit will be returned within 30 days of your move out date as long as you leave your apartment in the same condition as you moved in. You must give the housing manager a 7 day notice when you plan to move out.
The security deposit will only be returned if the apartments are in a "clean move-in ready condition". If the apartments are not in a "clean move-in ready condition, a portion or all of your security deposit will not be returned, depending upon how much cleaning needs to be done.
Background Check
All students staying in the student housing are subject to a background check through the apartment complex of Royal Oaks. Individuals with felonies are not eligible to stay in the student housing or attend school at The Travel Academy.
Move-In & Move-Out
The Housing Manager will contact you approximately two-three weeks before your scheduled class begins to schedule your arrival time. If you arrive outside of your allowed arrival time, you are responsible for finding transportation and housing accomodations until new arrangements with the housing manager have been made.
If you are driving, a staff member will meet you at the apartments (during your scheduled time only) to assist with move-ins, we ask that you call when you are 10 minutes from Royal Oaks Apartments in order to receive your building number.
If you are flying, you will receive SuperShuttle's information about 2-3 weeks before class begins. We ask that you print this out and bring with you to the airport. SuperShuttle will notify The Travel Academy when you are en-route to the apartments and drop you off at the building you will be staying in.
If for some reason you miss a flight, your car breaks down, and new arrangements must be made, you must contact the housing manager to make new arrangements.
Students moving into the student housing will receive a move-in checklist on the first day of class and must be signed by everyone in the apartment and submitted back to the housing manager by Wednesday. The move-in checklist is for your protection with your security deposit when you are going to move-out. Your housing area must be in the same condition when you move-out as when you move in.
During your last week of class you will receive a check-out cleaning list. If the apartment is left in a clean and move-in ready condition, the full security deposit will be returned. If the apartment is not in move-in ready condition and you choose to not clean the apartment, a portion or all of the security deposit may not be returned, depending on the amount of time needed to make the apartment ready for new students. These charges will be divided among all the tenants who are staying in that apartment.
Keys
When you receive your keys to move-in to your apartment, you must not remove the label on the key. All keys must be left in the apartment upon departure if any key is missing there will be a $50 charged to you or deducted from your security deposit. If we are unable to determine whose key it belongs to, everyone in the apartment will be deducted a portion of the cost.
Vacating the apartments
If you are removed from class for any reason, you must vacate the apartments immediately.
