Summer storage: Current residents returning for the Fall, may obtain a locker for summer storage. There is a fee for summer storage and you will need to provide your own lock. A signed agreement is available from the office.

Parking

All on-campus parking is managed by Mount Royal Transportation and Parking Services. Please ensure you park in designated lots since vehicles without the correct parking passes will be ticketed by Calgary Police Services and could be towed.

The East Residence has parking with plug-ins for each triad. The West Residence parking lot near the buildings is limited. Plug-ins are available in this lot.

West residents can use the parking area infront of Mount Royal Recreation. These lots do not have plug-ins. If you need a plug-in, you should consider choosing to live in the East Residence and should note this on your application. 

Note: Students with an Open Lot parking permit can park in either East Residence or West Residence.

Visitors who do not have MRU parking passes must park in designated visitor pay lots.

Mail

All mail is received at the West Residence office and distributed to student mailboxes located in both East and West. Each student is assigned a mailbox, and this box number is on your key envelope issued at move in. Items that will not fit in these boxes are held at the office in West Residence for pick up. Students will be called to notify of a pick up.

Residence Services will distribute some information throughout the semester through student mailboxes. Often this is information the office feels is necessary and should be provided in writing: how to apply for the next semester, how to properly prepare for move out etc. Students should check this mail box regularly.
