Move Out of Residence Halls

At the end of the academic year, the residence halls and dining services close for the summer: 

  • Residence Hall Closing Meetings: April 6-10
  • Last Day for Food Service: May 8
  • Residence Halls Close: May 9 at 6pm

We recommend that students move out within 24 hours of their last final exam to make moving out less congested.

You will need to schedule a move-out appointment on your Housing Portal by April 15. During your appointment, an RA will check your room to ensure it is in the same condition as when you moved in, and you will turn in your key. 

If you visit home during spring semester, it’s a good idea to start bringing things back to make fully moving out easier. If you need to stay past May 9, you will need to request a late check-out or apply for summer housing through your Housing Portal.

Tips for Checking Out

  • Make sure all your items are out of your room prior to your check-out time.
  • Be sure your room is clean. Basic cleaning supplies are available at your hall front desk, but vacuum cleaners are not available for check out.  
  • A limited number of moving bins are available in each hall.
Late Stays

The housing contract for the 2024-2025 school year ends May 9 at 6pm.

If you need to stay an extra day or two, you will need to go through a Late Stay Request Process. This request form is on your Housing Portal and must be completed by April 15.

Depending on the situation and length of request, students may need to move to a designated residence hall and/or floor.

There are limited services available for students staying after May 9, including dining services.
