Liability Insurance: Campus View registers ALL residents for Liability Insurance which covers damage to Campus View property (walls, floors, furniture, appliances, etc.) from incidents of major damage (ex. fires or floods) and protects the Resident from injury to others due to the Resident’s actions. This Liability Insurance policy is through a company called “Grad Guard” and underwritten my Merkel Insurance, with monthly premiums already included in the cost of housing. This policy does NOT cover any damage or theft to a Resident’s personal belongings.
Renter’s Insurance: Campus View does not require, but HIGHLY recommends all residents purchase a Renter’s Insurance policy to cover their personal belongings from damage or theft as well as incidental damage repairs while living at Campus View (ex. broken window, drywall repairs, etc.). Per the Housing Agreement, Campus View assumes zero liability for a Resident’s personal belongings from damage or theft regardless of responsibility. Renter’s Insurance coverage is available through “Grad Guard” or many other insurance carriers. For further information regarding a policy through “Grad Guard,” please contact the Housing Office.

Campus View offers residents two options for parking personal vehicles:
1. Highline College East Parking lot is available on a first come, first serve basis. A Highline College parking pass must be purchased each quarter. While overnight parking is normally prohibited, Campus View residents are afforded specific permission to park overnight.
2. Garage Parking is available on a per quarter basis with limited availability. The Highline College Public Safety Office oversees the billing and management of the parking garage; Campus View only provides the names of approved residents each quarter. The Public Safety Office charges $150 per quarter (no prorated rates available) which will be charged to the resident’s Highline College Student Account. If the interest in garage parking exceeds the number of available spaces, Campus View will conduct a lottery to determine the recipients of the available spaces.
Campus View and Highline College have NO authority over the parking spaces located in the front of the building. The spaces in front of the building are specifically for the use of the retail businesses on the first floor of the building. Residents who park their personal vehicle in the front spaces do so at their own risk.
Pets are prohibited, except for fish in 10-gallon aquarium or smaller, or when a verified disability warrants the possession of a service or emotional support animal. For service or assistance animals residents should please contact Campus View Student Housing Office for further information.
Once a student receives their financial aid from the College, the aid will be applied to their Highline College student account first. After all tuition and College fees are paid, any remaining funds would then be refunded back to the student. The student would then use this refund to pay their Campus View fees. This process can take up-to 3-4 weeks after the start of the quarter so Campus View offers a Financial Aid Payment Plan which extends the payment due date until the student receives their financial aid refund.
Please note, the Financial Aid Payment Plan requires the payment to be made IN FULL once the student receives their refund. Also, historically, a student must be prepared to include additional funds, out-of-pocket, as financial aid refunds have not been sufficient enough to cover the full housing payment. Once a student has completed the Housing Application process, information will be provided on how to request this Payment Plan registration form.
