If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your Complex Residence Director.
If you are switching rooms on campus for the Spring semester:
Contact your current CRD and let them know you are moving to another room, even if it’s within your own Complex. Head over to the Housing Office (below the Library) or the ResLife Office (Hurst Hall) to get a “Room Change Request Form”. This is the first step to changing your room. Then, head down to the Housing Office to see what may be available to you. Once you find a location, you will need your current and new roommate’s signature, and your new and current CRD’s signature. Email your current CRD. In the email, indicate when you plan to move out so a member of ResLife staff can help fill out the Room Condition Report with you. At this time, your key will be exchanged but you may keep your original FOB. Remember, if you have a bedframe in storage, you must make arrangements with the HERB RD ahead of time because it must be returned to your room before you leave. Following all the paperwork procedures insures that the Housing Office’s rosters are up-to-date and protects you from “improper check-out” fines, as well as from unnecessary end of the year charges.
If you are going abroad or graduating and will not be here for the Spring semester:
Contact your RA or CRD to schedule an appointment to check-out. Check-out should only be completed when you are completely moved out of your room and you are ready to hand in your key. Take your final exam schedule into consideration. During check-out, your Room Condition Report will be completed, you will sign off on it, and hand in your key (and FOB if you are graduating). At this point, you are not allowed back into this room (even if your roommate is still there). Make sure you let Housing (x3681) aware of your situation so you are not billed for living on campus for the Spring semester. Remember, if you have a bed frame in storage, you must make arrangements with an RA or the HERB RD ahead of time because it must be returned to your room before you leave. If you have rented a refrigerator or a loft, please contact the point person (who you contacted to receive it) and let them know you are leaving. They will inform you how to go about returning the rented item. Finally, following all the paperwork procedures insures that the Housing Office’s rosters are up-to-date and protects you from “improper check-out” fines, as well as from unnecessary end of the year charges. If you are Studying Abroad, don’t forget to check with the IOCP Office to make sure affairs are in order. If you are graduating – contact the Registrar’s Office!
If you are going to transfer or commute for the Spring semester:
Contact your RA or CRD to schedule an appointment to check-out. Check-out should only be completed when you are completely moved out of your room and you are ready to hand in your key. Take your final exam schedule into consideration. During check-out, your Room Condition Report will be completed, you will sign off on it, and hand in your key (and FOB if you are graduating). At this point, you are not allowed back into this room (even if your roommate is still there). Make sure you let Housing (x3681) aware of your situation so you are not billed for living on campus for the Spring semester. Remember, if you have a bed frame in storage, you must make arrangements with an RA or the HERB RD ahead of time because it must be returned to your room before you leave. If you have rented a refrigerator or a loft, please contact the point person (who you contacted to receive it) and let them know you are leaving.

Finally, following all the paperwork procedures insures that the Housing Office’s rosters are up-to-date and protects you from “improper check-out” fines, as well as from unnecessary end of the year charges. If you haven’t done so already, make an appointment with the Dean’s Office (x3390, Sycamore Cottage) to complete your transition from residential student to commuter or transfer.
