The University is a private institution and does not allow residents to use apartment addresses or telephone numbers for business purposes. You must submit a written request to the Family Housing Review Committee for approval to obtain a Provo City business license, and, if approved, you will be required to obtain a Post Office box to receive correspondence and a cell phone or pager to receive calls. All outside service needs, such as additional phone lines, fax lines, modems, etc., need to be requested from and approved by Family Housing Management and reviewed with the Office of IT. Supplies or materials cannot be stored in or distributed from the apartments. This policy applies to businesses such as Mary Kay®, Discovery Toys®, Tupperware®, Pampered Chef®, day care, tutoring, music lessons, and any other form of business.


Residents must abide by the following guidelines regarding guests:

• The Student Family Housing program is not designed for guests who intend to stay for extended periods of time. Guests are welcome at any time for visits of two weeks or less per semester.
• Guests must adhere to all BYU standards during the course of their visit. Residents are obligated to inform their guests of this responsibility.
• Residents are responsible for their guests and any damages that may result from their visit.
• Residents must be present during their guests' stay; residents may not have guests stay in their apartment during the residents' absence.
• There is a $40 per person per night charge for unapproved extended-visit guests.

The Student Family Housing Offices have a limited number of rollaway beds available for rental. Contact the Wymount office to inquire about availability and make rental arrangements.


After you have made every effort to solve an insect or pest infestation, if the problem persists, contact Auxiliary Maintenance Personnel at 422-4411. They will arrange assistance from a professional company that comes once a week.


The University Physical Plant is responsible for landscaping, planting, and maintaining the grounds at Student Family Housing. Residents are not permitted to plant flowers, shrubs, vegetables, etc. around their individual apartments. Small potted plants may be placed on balconies or landings, provided they sit on the ground. Plants may not hang outward over the balcony or landing railings.

The Student Family Housing Office will let you know when the lawns will be mowed during the summer months. Please take extra care to make certain your family's toys, bicycles, etc. are removed from the lawn area.

Do not engage in any activities that would harm the landscaping. Cars, trailers, trucks, etc. are not to be driven on the lawn areas at any time. Golf practice is not allowed in the housing area at any time.


Pets and animals of any kind, including fish, are not allowed in Student Family Housing, except for special assistance animals for persons with disabilities. Violators will be charged $10.00 per pet each day and rental agreements will be subject to termination. Please see the Animal Policy for more details.
