Dormitory Life
Laundry
Each student is responsible for washing and drying his/her own clothes in the student laundry room and should collect the dry clothes as soon as possible from there. Tokens for the use of the machines are available for purchase from the dormitory supervisor. There is one iron available on every floor of the dormitory area.
Privat Sphere
Living together in a dormitory requires that the private sphere of others is respected. The individual rooms of the students constitute their private sphere while the rest of the facilities (e.g., the Student Center) are available for community purposes.
Living outside of the school
Single students who want to live outside of the dormitory must receive permission from the school administration. Only exceptional cases will be granted permission. Living together in the school community is viewed as an important part of the educational process. However, married students are required to live outside the school.
Noise
Musical instruments and music played on smartphones, music boxes, etc. must all be kept at moderate volume levels during regular hours and not be used during quiet time. This applies to all school areas except music rehearsal areas.
The quiet time between 10 p.m. and a.m. is to be observed by all.
Pets
Keeping pets is not allowed.
Room Cleaning
Students are responsible for the cleanliness of their own rooms. Cleaning products are provided for this purpose. Each dormitory room will be checked on a weekly basis by the Dormitory Supervisor.
Sign-Out Policy
The school needs to know where students are in case of emergencies. Therefore, if the student is absent overnight he/she must give prior notice to the Dormitory Supervisor so that he/she may be reached in emergencies.
Vacation Periods
Students are not permitted to stay in the dormitories during school vacations without prior approval from the house manager. The opening and closing of dormitories will be published in the school calendar.
Visitors
Overnight visitors are welcome at the dorm if there is a guest room available and when the visit has been approved in advance by the Dormitory Supervisor. Guests must abide by all of the house rules and they or their host must make prompt payment of fees for room and board to the School Office.
