Contracts

We will launch our contract for housing in late January 2024. This contract is for girls wishing to live with us for the 2024-2025 school year. 

In order to access the contract packet you will need your username and password, which will be emailed to our entire applicant database in January. 

If you do not have an application on file, please complete the application online, print it and mail it to us with the $100 application fee.  Passwords will be sent to the resident and “Best” email address provided on your application a few days prior to contract launch. 

Once you have read the following information and have agreed to its terms, you will be asked for your username and password, which will give you access to the contract packet. We recommend that you print this page and review it carefully.

  • Note that your application we currently have on file does not reserve you a space. Only receipt of the $2500.00 Facility Confirmation Fee and a Contract signed by all parties constitutes a binding agreement and reservation.
     
  • You may be accessing this contract packet before you have been accepted to a college in Austin, so take into consideration that you must be an enrolled college student to reside with us. Though we do not require college acceptance before you sign and return the contract, we encourage you to wait until you receive official notice. If you choose not to wait until acceptance and you return the signed contract, realize that once fully executed, the contract is binding. Check the website to see our executed contract status, as the date for full occupancy is not predictable. We will update the website on a regular basis, but remember that the numbers shown may not reflect the exact total contracts received, as this number will be constantly changing. Signed contracts are processed in the order in which they are received. Rooms are assigned according to the date we first received your application - not your contract. Room assignments will be e-mailed in late May. Additionally, our parking spaces are assigned in the order we receive contracts and are limited in number.
     
  • Once your contract has been executed, the Guarantor and Resident are thereafter liable for the full amount of the contract, unless, upon written request for release of contract by resident, a replacement resident is obtained as provided in Section 19(c) of the contract. If resident delivers a written request for release from the contract prior to April 8, 2024, and a replacement resident is obtained, $1000.00 of the Facility Confirmation Fee will be refunded to resident; thereafter, none of the Facility Confirmation Fee will be refunded to resident. If no replacement resident can be found to release your contract, you will be held liable for the full amount of the contract. Certainly, the sooner you let us know you need a replacement, the better chance of us working together to find one.
     
  • The Contract, upon acceptance by Hardin House, will be executed and a copy will be returned for your family's files within 2 weeks. On May 20th we will e-mail fall room and roommate assignments, parking invoices and initial billing statements. Payments are due June 1st. 
  • Please remember that by signing a contract you are agreeing to any room assignment and price category within Hardin House. 

I have read the above information and agree to its terms. I am now ready to enter username and password to access the 2024 - 2025 contract packet.
