How do I transfer to a different room/building?

We have a transfer request list that you can get on and place a request to change to a different space. However because of how full we typically are we may not be able to grant your request during the fall semester.

Who do I talk to about a roommate issue?

You would want to start by speaking with your Community Advisor. You may also speak with the ARD/RD in your building.

How do I get out of my contract?

To request a contract release you will want to speak with the Business Operations Supervisor in your building. They will have the paperwork for the contract release and they will answer any questions you have about the process. Find your hall's contact information on its hall page.

Find more information in our Contract release guidelines

What do I do if I am planning on studying abroad in the Spring?

In the fall you will want to speak with the Business Operations Supervisor (found on your hall page) in your building and ask them about a Contract Release. They will have a little bit of paperwork to fill out and will be able to answer any questions you may have. Find more information in our Contract release guidelines

When do the halls close for winter break? What if I need to stay here during the break?

The halls close at 8:00 pm on the last day of finals (not the apartments). There will only be a few buildings open (typically Centennial, Sanford, and Middlebrook). Residents of those buildings can stay over the break but they will be charged a nightly rate, residents of other halls will have to leave during the break.

How can I change/cancel my meal plan?

During the first two weeks of the fall semester you can change your meal plan online. Students living in the Residence Halls are required to have a meal plan no exceptions.
