Contract refunds
Refunds are only granted, a) if approved for a contract release, and b) the student has completely moved out and returned keys. The final amount refunded may be impacted by room damage, key replacement, or other fees. Credits may take one to two billing cycles to appear on the U-Bill. All housing contract cancellations will be subject to the cancellation schedule below.
If you cancel your housing contract, your meal plan will also be canceled effective on the date of checking out of the residence halls.
