  Before completing this application, please ensure you have read "Resident Rights & Responsibilities" by clicking here to read the document. By submitting this application, you explicitly acknowledge that you understand and accept the following structural and operational realities of AST Residence:
  
  Physical Infrastructure: The AST Residence Building is a historic, multi-storey heritage structure featuring stair-only access with absolute-zero elevator access. Residents are entirely responsible for managing their own mobility and luggage up multiple flights of stairs.
  
  Assigned Room: Your final room assignment may be changed by the administration up to the day of your arrival to accommodate collective community health, medical, and accessibility needs.
  
  The Women’s Wing: The Women’s Wing rooms, washrooms, and kitchen are strictly reserved for individuals who identify as women; guests of any other gender identity (including family and friends) are completely prohibited from entering these spaces.
  
  Strict Scent-Reduced & Smoke-Free Campus: The entire campus is 100% smoke-free and vape-free (including all private bedrooms and outdoor grounds). Violations carry a mandatory $250.00 fine per incident and zero-warning eviction thresholds for serious misconduct.
  
  Washrooms: All day visitors, including family and friends, are to use the above-ground basement washroom. The washrooms on the other floors are strictly assigned to residences only.
  
  Visitors: All visitors can visit between 7 am and 11 pm and must abide by all AST residence rules. The visitor bathroom is in the above-ground basement. If a visitor wishes to stay overnight, you will need to complete the Short Stay Visitor Residence Application Form.
  
  Quiet Hours: Everyone in residence is to abide by the daily quiet hours from 11 pm to 7 am. To remain friendly, courteous, and supportive, please remember that residents have various sleeping, working, and studying hours in residences. Noise easily travels throughout the building.
  
  Communal Kitchens: Shared kitchens are provided for residents' use and must be kept clean, respectful, and accessible to others at all times. Residents are responsible for cleaning up immediately after use, properly labelling and storing food, and removing expired or spoiled items. Personal cookware, dishes, and food items should not be used by others without permission. To support a safe and comfortable living environment, residents are expected to follow all residence kitchen guidelines and have courtesy toward fellow residents when preparing meals and using shared appliances.
  
  If any of these environmental, structural, or community rules conflict with your lifestyle or personal comfort, we respectfully suggest exploring alternate housing arrangements before submitting this form.
