Family apartments are available for married couples (with or without children), single parents with children, students with special/unique needs, or college employees in some special circumstances.

The college will assume responsibility for payment of utilities except for long distance telephone service and any supplemental cable other than basic services the college already provides in the other dorm rooms.

Occupants may choose or not choose to participate in the meal plan. It makes no difference whether one or both of the persons that make up the married couple are SWCID students, the rent cost will remain the same.

Students, who would otherwise not qualify, may be placed in the apartments due to lack of space availability in the residence halls. Students will be charged the current dorm rate in this situation, regardless of the number of students sharing the apartment. Students in this situation will be required to participate in the meal plan. When space is available, they may be relocated to the residence halls.

The meal plan is required for individual students living in the manufactured homes but is optional for married couples and parents with children.

Students, who would otherwise not qualify, may be placed in the manufactured homes due to lack of space availability in the residence halls. When space is available, they may be relocated to the residence halls.
