About the Housing Rental Request Form
We’ll reschedule the eRequest System training soon. One of the task after the training, is to help our teachers with the housing rental E-request for the next school year.
Some teachers could find a copy of your current year housing rental request form in the mailroom. Please keep it, in case you need a sample to fill in the e-Request Form. It included the info such as the description of the rental period, bank info and payment amount.
Also, you could ask your landlord or housing rental agent for the info when filling the e-Request Form.
