Cancelling prior to move in:
- The pre-payment may be refundable in full if cancellation is received prior to May 1. If cancellation is received prior to June 1 student will be refunded 50% of the pre-payment. After June 1 there are no refunds of the prepayment.
- Students cancelling due to unforeseen circumstances may appeal the forfeit of their prepayment by submitting their appeal and supporting documentation through their cancellation request in Manage My Housing. If you are experiencing issues uploading the documentation in Manage My Housing then you may email the information to [email protected].
**Provided you do not owe the university money, the refund will be applied to the card used to make the initial pre-payment.
