How to complete your Room Condition Report:

• What is an RCR?

Our Room Condition Reports or "RCRs" are on-line assessment forms that we use to record the quantity and condition of University provided furniture, fixtures, and the condition of the apartment or room itself. A report is completed for each room/apartment prior to the arrival of residents. Each RCR should reflect the total room/apartment inventory of furniture and items. For example, if you live in a double room your RCR will reflect two complete sets of furniture comprised of a bed, desk, desk chair, dresser, and wardrobe. In an apartment, the RCR will reflect both the bedroom as well as common areas.

• How is the RCR used?

Billing for any damaged or missing items at the conclusion of your occupancy of the space will be based upon information contained in the RCR. It is important that you thoroughly review this report, which is completed prior to your arrival to campus to avoid unnecessary billing after you vacate your assignment. While we strive to correct or document as many imperfections as possible prior to your check in, we encourage you to bring any missed items to our attention via this process. After reviewing your RCR, if you have changes, additions, or comments that you would like RLUH staff to review, follow the instructions in MyHousing to report those.

All residents of an assigned room/apartment are held equally responsible for the condition and any missing items at the time of your check out, unless otherwise documented. If any damages have occurred to your room during your stay please see your RA or RD to complete a damage responsibility form.

• How long do I have to review the RCR and complete the submission process and how do I find mine?

Residents have 48 hours after they receive their key/door access to complete the RCR review and acceptance process. After 2 days, the original RCR will become the final and official record of your room condition. The quantities and condition descriptions documented on the RCR for your space will be used as comparison points when your space is re-assessed at the conclusion of your occupancy.

• How do I review my RCR?

• Log into your MyHousing account. 
• On the left side, select RCR/damages. 
• In the box in the middle of the screen you should see an RCR that was completed for your space. If there are multiple listed, select the one with the latest date as this is the most up to date version that was completed for your space. 
• Click on the eye to view your RCR. 
• You will see a list of all of the items that exist in your space. Each item will have a condition listed and if there are any notes about the item you will see those next to it, along with the date that those notes were applied to the document. 
• If you disagree with anything that is listed on your RCR, either because an issue no longer exists or you found an issue that was not recorded, scroll to the bottom of your RCR and you will see an open text box. Please be specific about whatever you disagree with on your RCR by listing the item itself and then explaining what should be reflected on the document. 
• When you are done reviewing or making your additions, you will select a response to your RCR, which is considered "signing off" on the document. You will either agree to the document as it stands or disagree and add your own notes in the open text field. 
• If an issue appears on the RCR, does that mean someone will come to fix or replace it?

Most of the time, a maintenance request is entered for any issue significant enough to require noting on the RCR in advance of your arrival. However, students can also submit maintenance requests by visiting www.rowan.edu/rowanworks to ensure a repair is requested by the current resident.
