Living together
Silence after 11 p.m.
To ensure each resident a good night’s rest, silence has to be observed in the Residences from 11 p.m. onwards.
After this time any disturbing noise will be considered a noise nuisance, to which sanctions apply.
In case of nuisance, you can contact the Emergency & Prevention Office in all discretion by dialing 0800 6 7125 (toll-free number). A security officer will verify what is happening and file a report.
All noise pollution incidents are reported to the International Office and to the home university of the resident responsible for the incident. If the charges are so serious, tenants can be expelled from the Residences.
Curfew period
During curfew periods (official exam period), the Housing Office guarantees that no maintenance or renovation works with noise nuisance will be carried out.
During these periods an extra effort is asked from the residents to respect silence 24/7.
