All students must vacate their assigned room at the time that their eligibility and/or occupancy period expires.Students who are approved to remain in Summer Housing through Transition Day and who live in the residence halls during the academic year will be able to move directly into their academic year room assignment on August 16, 2024.

Students who will not be living in the residence halls for the 2024 Fall semester must make alternative housing arrangements between Transition Day and the start of the school year. Alternative housing resources are: Fraternity Manager’s Association or the Commuter Affairs Office.
