Below are forms that can be used to request a change to the terms of your housing contract or to your housing assignment.
Students may be released from the student housing contract by any one of the following options: (a) withdrawing from school; (b) marriage; (c) graduation; (d) approved study abroad; (e) serious extenuating circumstances beyond the student's control that were not present at the time of housing selection. Please note that finding housing off-campus while still under contract for housing at UP is not a valid option for release from the housing contract. Students who request to be released from their student housing contract must complete the Housing Cancellation Petition. For students seeking release from their contract while remaining enrolled at UP, appropriate documentation must accompany the petition for it to be considered. Students who are released from their contracts during a semester may be eligible for a refund based on the unused portion of the contract. There is a $100 housing contract cancellation fee if the contract cancellation request is approved.
If a student moves out of a residence hall during the school year without an approved contract release or is removed for judicial purposes, housing costs for the year will be charged to their account.
