Damages to Rooms

All losses and damages beyond normal wear and tear which occur within an individual student’s room are charged to the resident(s) of the room.
The room check form completed or notification by email to rcrepairs@lums.edu.pk at the beginning of each resident’s occupancy protects the student from being held liable for previous damages or conditions.
Once residents have checked into a room they are then responsible for all damages and/or losses which may occur during their occupancy.
Charges for residential room damages may not be appealed if a Check-in Form/email notification were not submitted at the time of check in or if residents have swapped/changed their assigned room without approval of the Housing Office.
