Long-term guests are not permitted. For more details on guest policy, please visit the Residence Contract.

St Johns College is not responsible for your personal belongings. It is recommended that you purchase tenants insurance through your insurance broker. Some residents may be covered by your family's house insurance.

Before you talk to an insurance broker you may want to think about the following:

• What is the value of my possessions
• What is covered by the policy?
• Does the insurance cover my belongings during moving in/out
• You are responsible for reporting thefts to campus security.

There are laundry facilities in the basement level of St Johns Residence.
Located in the basement of the Residence, students can use the facility at a $10 deposit. Be sure to return your card to the General Office at the end of the year for $10 refund.
