Animals


For reasons of health, maintenance, pest control, and general convenience, animals (with the exception of approved service animals, emotional support animals, or fish in an aquarium of 10 gallons or less) are not allowed in campus housing. Any student found to have a pet- related item (e.g., pet cage, pet food, water bowl, litter or leash) in their room is subject to disciplinary action. Any student assigned to the same room or suite where an animal is found may be held responsible as well.

 

Students requesting an animal accommodation, such as an emotional support animal, should start by reviewing and submitting information located on the Residence Life Housing Accommodation website at www.yhc.edu/student-life/disability-services/
