The study would be carried out using:

• facility condition reports provided by Wilfrid Laurier University;
• an evaluation of enrollment data, some of which may be provided by Wilfrid Laurier University;
• a comprehensive student housing market study which will be conducted solely by the consultant; and any other relevant information as needed.
