Cancelling your Housing License
Students who have signed the housing license and wish to cancel the license, may apply to cancel their housing license online on their My Housing portal. The request to cancel the housing license will be reviewed and the student will be notified if their request has been approved or denied.
If approved, they will be emailed instructions on how and when to move out (if they have already moved in). The student may need to provide documentation supporting their need to move out of the residence halls. Students who are canceling their housing license because they are transferring, withdrawing or otherwise separating from the university will need to fill out the appropriate forms with the University Registrar before submitting a request to cancel their housing license.
Students required to live on campus as part of the On-Campus Housing Residency Requirement will not be approved to cancel their housing license.
Costs to Cancel a Housing License
The cost to cancel a housing license is $300. However, if a student is separating from the university, or if they are engaging in a university-based academic experience that requires them to travel 35 miles or more away from the University the termination fee is waived.
Cancellations on the Basis of Disability or Medical Need
Students requesting to cancel their housing license on the basis of the University not being able to provide a reasonable accommodation for their disability or medical need must first get approval from Student Accessibility Services. If Student Accessibility Services determines that the University is unable to accommodate the student, they will communicate this decision to the Residence Life Office. The student should wait to submit a cancellation request until after they hear back from Student Accessibility Services.
