Move Out

Information for Move Out

Residence Life will notify residents of move out procedures via email closer to move-out week. RAs will also communicate move-out procedures to residents closer to move-out week.

Damage Billing

After all residents have completed their move out process, Residence Life staff will assess damages in all residential spaces. Please know that while we will be using a liberal definition of “expected normal wear and tear,” we will bill residents for major damages to halls that is beyond this definition. This includes leaving furniture behind that does not belong to the college, missing furniture issued by the college, and excessive cleaning.

Mail Room

All of your first-class mail and packages should have been forwarded to the permanent address Wilkes University has on file. For any inquiries about expected mail or packages, please contact the Eddie's Mail Room Supervisor, Jim Yeninas, at james.yeninas@wilkes.edu or (570) 408-4123.
