Finder tool inside U360, then find potential matches
based on your responses. Finally, you will submit
your housing request to us via the U360 community.

STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE/WAIVER:

Saint Leo University requires all full time undergraduate students attending University
Campus through our traditional program to carry health insurance. As a result all students
are billed for a health insurance policy upon full time registration. Students who have their
own coverage through an individual, group or family plan and would like to avoid double
coverage may waive the University Policy and have the fee removed from their account.
Please review the Student Health Insurance flyer in your New Student Packet. For
additional information or instructions on completing the waiver please visit
www.saintleo.edu/insurance. Waivers must be completed online at no later than
September 10, 2013 for students attending full time in 2013 Fall 1 semester. Submission of insurance information in any other format will not be sufficient to waive coverage.
International students may waive the insurance. Please note coverage used to waive the
insurance must be provided by a US based insurer.Travel medical polices will not be sufficient to waive coverage.
Questions about student health insurance may be directed to Trane Stop at (352) 588-7496.
RESIDENCE HALL AGREEMENT / HOUSING REQUEST:
Deadline: JULY 5, 2013
If you plan to live on campus, you must complete the Residence Hall Agreement.
In order to guarantee housing, your signed Residence Hall Agreement must
be received by July 5. Agreements received after July 5 will be processed on a space
available basis.
In addition to completing and returning your Residence Hall Agreement, you will also
want to log on to the U360 online community and utilize the Roommate Finder tool.
This tool allows you to do several things. First you will complete your housing survey.
It is important to be honest on this survey! Once you have completed this, you will be
able to use the Roommate Finder tool to search for a roommate based on your survey
responses. The discussion boards in U360 are another great way to get to know potential
roommates. When you are ready, you will use the Roommate Finder tool to submit your
Housing Request. Housing Requests must also be submitted by July 5. When
you do this, you have several options:
1.You may request a specific individual by entering that person’s name in a free-form
field.You should tell the person you are requesting to be sure to submit their form
indicating you as their roommate preference.
2.You may request that we select someone for you.
3.You may request that you be placed with someone from your same major or from your
same athletic team.
When you complete your Housing Request, you will also be able to select your residence
hall preference (freshmen are generally placed in Marmion/Snyder/Henderson/Benoit).
You will also be able to use the Housing Request to make Residence Life aware of any
special accommodations or health issues that have a bearing on your housing.
Questions about housing should be directed to the Office of Residence Life at
(352) 588-8268 or residencelife@saintleo.edu.
