Fall Into October
Renewal Season Is Here!
Renewal season officially kicks off on October 2! Please contact the office for details about how to stay with us for another year.
Maintenance Tips
As fall weather approaches us, we may experience some colder temperatures. If you turn on your heater, you may experience a burning smell — but don’t panic. The accumulated dust is the cause of that smell. If it continues, contact the office. If you have any service requests, just put in a work order via your portal, or by calling or stopping by the office during office hours.

Happy October!
We hope you’ve had a good start to the semester! Everyone should be settled in by now and ready to take on the school year. October will be packed with events and a special Resident Appreciation Week planned from October 2–6, so be sure to look at the events section in this newsletter.
Renewal rates and new lease rates are ready! Please stop by the front desk so we can answer any questions you have in regard to renewing your lease — we’re happy to help.
Get involved. Get ahead.
Did you know students who are involved outside of the classroom are more successful in their academic pursuits? If you haven’t already done so, we encourage you to find opportunities to get involved on campus and in the local community. Your campus’ student activities office is a great place to start to find out about clubs, organizations, and campus events. You can also connect with our team to find ways to get connected. Whether it’s the chess club or intramural football, or volunteering at a local shelter, we would love to help you find ways to get involved both at your Campus Advantage community and on campus.
How are we doing?
Have you filled out your resident satisfaction survey yet? Please take a moment to let us know how we’re doing and get a chance to win a $1,000 or $500 gift card! Simply visit http://ratemy.community. We are always working to improve your experiences!
