Frequently Asked Questions

Yes! As long as the funds are dispersed into your bank account, you can use them as you need. We will not accept the funds directly from the financial aid office or defer payments for fund disbursement.

Individual leasing means peace of mind for you. An individual lease is a per-bed lease. You sign a lease for a bed space in the apartment and share common areas with roommates. This means you are only responsible for your own installments. If a roommate transfers to another school or moves out of The Marshall for any reason, you do not have to worry about having to cover their portion of rent.

A guarantor is a co-signer for your lease agreement. Because students often don’t have an income, having a guarantor allows us to qualify you for a lease based on your guarantor’s income. You will list the name and email of your guarantor during the application process, and your guarantor will receive an email to fill out their portion of the application. We require all residents at The Marshall to have a guarantor or enroll in our Guarantor Waiver Program.

The Guarantor Waiver Program is hosted through our Third-Party Lease Insurance Program which fills in for a personal guarantor or parent cosigner, allowing you to sign a lease where you otherwise would not qualify and allows you to self-qualify as a student. At the time of signing, every resident agrees to the auto enrollment of the guarantor waiver program if a personal guarantor is not approved within 7 days of signing. This program includes a monthly fee for the term of the lease in order to cosign your lease, which is an additional $45 a month.

At The Marshall, utilities are projected to range from around $30 to $60 per person, per month on average. This will vary depending on floorplan type, usage and other factors. This range is an estimate – costs may fall outside of this range.

You can easily complete the entire leasing process online. We are also available in the leasing office if you wish to visit us to apply in person.
