Front Desk
The front desk is staffed 24 hours, 7 days a week with security personnel from a private company hired by American Campus Communities. Their main responsibilities are to monitor access into the building, answer questions and assist residents with maintenance concerns. The front desk attendants work 3 main shifts which are:
8am—4pm
4 pm—12 midnight
12 midnight—8 am


Card Access System
The Card Access system is set up so that you, as the resident, are responsible for helping to make the building safe. At check-in each resident is given an access card that they should use to pass through by the front desk. If you lose your card please see the Caneris Hall Front Desk, immediately.

Trash Rooms
There are two trash rooms located on each floor right next to the laundry rooms. Please break down all boxes and stack them neatly in the trash room. Make sure all bags are secured. Do not leave trash in the hallways.


Mailboxes
The mailboxes are located on the main level directly around the corner from the front desk. Each apartment has been issued one mailbox key. As an apartment it is up to you, the residents, to decide how to facilitate getting your mail. You have many options including making additional keys, leaving the key in a location that everyone has access to in the apartment or sharing the responsibility for retrieving mail.


Laundry Facilities
There are two laundry rooms located on each floor. Both are equipped with 2 washers and 2 dryers that are operated by a laundry card. Each resident is responsible for purchasing their own laundry card. There is a machine to purchase cards near the mailboxes. If you experience problems with or lose your laundry card, please contact the laundry company directly at 1-800-232-9274.


Security Cameras
Each floor of the building is equipped with security cameras. They are monitored 24 hours a day by the front desk security personnel. The installation of these cameras is an added measure used to make the building as safe of an environment to reside in as possible.


Fire Safety
Each floor is equipped with two fire extinguishers and fire alarm pull stations. All apartments are equipped with smoke detectors and sprinklers. When a resident hears that the fire alarm has been activated they should evacuate the premises immediately. All residents should proceed down the stairs and gather across the street from the building to await further instruction.


Floor Balconies\Roof
Each floor has two balconies which serve as emergency fire exits. Please note that it is unacceptable for residents to utilize these balconies for anything other than an emergency fire exit. This includes, but is not limited to hanging out, smoking, standing or sitting and throwing items from this balcony. Residents found on the balconies will be documented by the University Crossings staff and/or College Park Staff.


Parking Information

Residents in need of parking can take advantage of an agreement made between University Crossings and Five Star Parking. Residents can pick up a parking application from the University Crossings Front Desk. Once completed, residents should return their completed form to Five Star Parking to receive the $150/ per month rate being offered. Residents may also contact the Drexel Parking Office located in the General Services Building on 34th and Market Streets to apply for the waiting list for available Drexel parking lots.
