If you are new to the property for the 2012 - 2013 leasing year, and you choose to pay by installments, the first payment is due by July 15, 2012. Your next installment payment is then due by the first of every month beginning September 1, 2012. You will not receive the keys to your apartment and bedroom if you do not make your first payment in full. Please contact us at 570-387-0220 if you have any questions regarding your specific lease.

There is no discount for paying in full although we encourage you to do so.

No, we do not send out bills. The lease stipulates the due dates for your rent. Typically, your installment is due on the first of every month. Please call the office at 570-387-0220 if you need further clarification. For your convenience, we do send out payment booklets for easy installment payment reminders.

Yes, you can pay with a credit card, but we do prefer that you pay with a check. We have a new procedure of paying by credit card or e-check on line. We accept MasterCard, American Express, Discover and Visa. There is a charge to use a credit card. You can make a payment with credit card or e-check by going to the "Pay Rent" button at the top of the Home Page of our website. The fee for a credit card varies on the type of card but usually costs around $20.00 for regular installment payments. E-check fee is $.99. You can call the office for more information or questions about the process.

When you turn in your application, we require that you pay both the application fee $40.00 (non-refundable) and a one-time service fee of $220.00 at that time. If you cancel your application in writing within 48-hours, you will be refunded the $220.00 service fee. The service fee is only paid one time during a resident's tenure with the property. Please note that the service fee is NOT a security deposit that you receive when you leave your apartment. This is a one-time fee paid to help fund operational costs on the property such as snow removal, fitness center supplies, clubhouse amenities, and landscaping costs.

Your rent includes electric, water, sewer, trash pick-up, extended basic cable (in each bedroom) and internet. There is a designated cap of $180.00 per apartment for the electric bill. If the apartment goes over for that month, the difference will be split equally among the occupants of that specific apartment.

You can request a specific apartment and specific roommates, but there is no guarantee that we can honor your request due to previous requests. We do our best to try to accommodate your requests.

There is ample parking available for our residents on the property for a fee of $15.00 per month. Residents' guests may park on the property for free but must park in designated guest parking areas and obtain a parking pass. Passes may be obtained in the office.

You can move in during normal office hours on the move-in date listed on your leasing agreement. See the property homepage for more details or call the office at 570-387-0220 for semester specific dates. Your first rent installment must be received prior to your being able to move in (***No exceptions.***)

You should review any documentation concerning grants, loans, or scholarships with your parents and the financial aid office. Most grants and loans that would cover on-campus housing should cover the costs of living at Honeysuckle Student Apartments, but understand that the rent installments for your apartment are due on the 1st of each month despite any financial aid disbursement dates. Your first rent installment must be received prior to your being able to move in (***No exceptions.***)

Prices for Fall 2012 - Spring 2013 leases are posted in our Floor Plans section of our website as well as the Forms & Documents Section. (***Parking fees are an additional $15.00 per installment payment***)
