Occupancy Extensions

All of the undergraduate residence halls are closed during vacation periods, with the exception of “1300” and the Edge.  Only students permanently assigned to these residence halls, who formally request a housing occupancy extension by completing the Request for a Housing Occupancy Extension, may take advantage of this housing service.

TO APPLY FOR END-OF-THE-YEAR EXTENSIONS, first click on the "End-of-Spring Term Closing" link below to review the policies and then proceed to submit your Occupancy Extension Request by entering your accessnet username and password on the on-line submission form.

Additional charges for break housing will be assessed onto a student’s University account. Podiatry and Triangle Apartments remain open during vacation periods.  It is very important that residents adhere to the directives issued by residential life staff.

In the event you submit a request beyond the published deadline date, a $50 late fee will be assessed to your account in addition to per diem charges for the extension.

In an effort to better assist residents, Resident Assistants will conduct floor meetings that will provide all of the information needed to prepare for the vacation/break periods.

Residents are urged to take valuables with them during vacation and break periods because they will not have access to them during the time the residence halls are closed.  In addition, prior to leaving for vacations, residents should unplug all electrical devices, remove all trash from the room, and lock all windows and doors (security screens and bars should remain in locking position).
