Maintenance & Access

You should submit a FixIt to Facilities Planning, Construction, and Management for any problems you find in your room or in your hall regarding appliances, bathrooms, leaks, lighting and power, temperature, door and locks, pests, widows, furniture, mailboxes, elevators, and general damage.

By submitting the FixIt yourself, you will be directly notified of updates and able to track the progress of your request through the process.

Lockouts

Mobile ID App

In the unlikely event that you lock yourself out of your room because you left your GWorld card in your room, the quickest way to unlock your door is to access the Mobile ID App for Android or Apple smartphones.

The app works on individual suite and room doors if the user is directly in front of the door.
To access exterior doors and elevators, use the lost/found card feature
