ECA is 3980 per semester for a 4 bedroom apartment.
That's 7960 for the year. Using the 2/9 left over as per your 7/9s contention would leave a refund of 1768.89 With a 75% deduction this comes to 442. Yes they are giving this penalty.
I'm here to eat my crow. Took a quick glance at the rates and ignored the semester tag.
OP is correct. Would have done a better job linking the housing contract that outlines this.
Poor form by ResLife...they deserve the hell they should get.

There’s no way LSU will stand by this.
PR nightmare.

If you move out without resigning from LSU, you are responsible for 75 percent of the remaining spring or
summer rent for the lowest priced room offered
So basically because you don't HAVE to move out... they are gonna stick with this charge.
Yeah, LSU needs to catch a ton of crap for this, especially since just further down it says
quote:
If you are required to move out of the residence halls for the convenience of the university, you will be refunded all of
the remaining rent for the current semester and shall not be charged rent for any future term so long as you do not live
in the residence halls.
Isn't LSU asking people to leave? I would think having less people in the dorms / apts would constitute "convenience of the university" even if it's not "required".
Poor form for sure.
Also... 8,000 for 9 months in an on-campus 4 bedroom apt? That's almost $900 a month. I get living on campus has some benefits, but holy crap.

They probably could have made more clear on the site.

Very poor form indeed. I get charging a penalty to someone who just leaves. But telling people to leave if they can is a different circumstance altogether.
