Residential Student Agreements

Residential Student Agreements are automatically cancelled when a student (1) graduates or (2) is no longer enrolled at the University.

Students who have signed the Residential Student Agreement are obligated to the terms therein. Students may request cancellation of their Residential Student Agreement partially through its period of agreement by completing a cancellation request form found on the Housing Portal. 

1. Submitting a request for cancellation from the Residential Student Agreement at any time does not guarantee approval.

2. Cancellation requests are reviewed by a committee on a rolling basis. An immediate decision is not available.

3. Qualifying for exemption from the Residential Boarding Policy may not automatically grant the ability to cancel a Residential Student Agreement. For example, living within commuting distance of the University may not be a recognized reason for mid-year contract cancellation.
4. Students are strongly advised not to sign a lease or enter an off-campus housing obligations until they have received an official decision. Official decisions are communicated via email to a student's university email account.

The terms of your Residential Student Agreement remain in place unless a student receives official release by the Housing Cancellation Committee, regardless of other housing obligations outside the University.

Please note, cancellations only apply to signed Residential Student Agreements. See Exemption from Boarding Policy for more info about exemption from housing obligations.
