Room Repairs

​​​Please submit one issue per work order submission to allow for an efficient and timely response. To better serve you, please select a category based on your work order issue:

Wi-Fi & Internet

Work orders regarding Wi-Fi and internet access or setting up your computer should be sent to the Technology Support Center by logging in to Campus Connect.

Furniture

  • Requests to loft a bed must be submitted while you are living on campus. Therefore, you may not complete a work order prior to your move-in appointment. ​
  • All university-provided furniture must remain in your room.
  • Please do not put furniture in the hallway, even temporarily. Doing so may result in damage charges.
  • In converted or temporary units, if a roommate moves out, the additional furniture will be removed within one to two weeks. This is automatic, no work order is needed.
  • All missing furniture requests will be compared to your Housing Condition Report and pre-move-in inspection.

Cable TV

  • DePaul University no longer provides traditional wired coax-based TV service in student rooms on the Lincoln Park Campus; this is only provided to lounges and common areas.
  • For more information on TV service for Lincoln Park residents, visit the TV & Technology webpage.

Heating & Cooling

  • Campus heating and cooling is provided seasonally.
  • For residents living in Centennial, Ozanam and LeCompte halls, be sure the heating/cooling switch is on prior to attempting to adjust the temperature.
  • Do not use your window unit A/C in the winter months as it may cause damage.
