Before reading the details below about housing cancellations, please confirm your eligibility to submit a request:
All incoming first-year students are required to live on campus for their first two years.
All incoming transfer students are required to live on campus for their first year.
Students who participate in University-sponsored programs (such as internships and Study Abroad), or who request a leave of absence, will be required to fulfill the two-year residency requirement upon their return to campus.
Third-year and fourth-year students who have fulfilled the requirement are eligible to cancel their housing contracts prior to selecting a room during the returning student room selection process.
Cancellation Requests
Incoming first-year and transfer students as well as rising second-year students may submit a Housing & Dining Accommodation Request through the housing portal.
Students eligible to cancel their housing contract (rising third- and fourth-year students) can request to do so via the housing portal.
Submitting a cancellation request is not an automatic release from your contract, nor does it guarantee a release.
Each request is reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
If approved, and depending upon your cancellation request’s submission date, you may be responsible for a cancellation fee and/or a portion if not the entirety of the contracted rate.
*Note: the cancellation fee may be waived for extenuating circumstances.
