Post-Secondary Students live in furnished efficiency apartments, which are approximately 550 square feet. Currently, there are four apartments, which are all wheelchair accessible. Each apartment has an outside entrance, as well as a door that opens into a common area, where the laundry facilities and PSP student computers are located.
PSP students are responsible for paying monthly rent. The amount of rental payments is based on 33% of the student’s SSI, SSDI, or other monthly income. Electricity, water, and garbage utilities are included in their rental payments.
Students sign a lease agreement when they move in, which outlines their rights and responsibilities as a resident/tenant of the PSP apartments.
If a student is interested in having Cable, phone, or Internet access in his/her apartment, He/she will be responsible for the installation of these services, as well as the monthly payments. All apartments are equipped with cable and phone jacks.
There are two washing machines and two dryers available for use, free of charge, to all PSP students. Students will be responsible for purchasing their own laundry supplies, such as detergent, fabric softener, and Bags/baskets.
Two computers are available for use by PSP students. These computers have Internet access through the TSBVI network. In addition, students have access to a scanner with OCR software, a printer, Braille embosser, and a CCTV. All computers are equipped with JAWS.
Note: Some sites, such as My Space, are blocked on the Internet, because of TSBVI and the Region XIII Internet policies.
