Frequently Asked Questions
(Summer 2025: Tentative Information And Subject To Change)
Q. Can I stay in my spring housing assignment over the summer?
A. No, students staying for summer housing must move to the designated summer housing location.
Q. If I plan to stay the entire summer but leave for two weeks, will I be charged for the two weeks I'm away from campus?
A. Yes, charges will apply during your absence. However, if you opt to vacate the room for the specified two-week period, no charges will be incurred. Prior arrangements with the Office of Residence Life are necessary, and all belongings must be cleared from the room. Upon your return to campus, availability of the same room cannot be guaranteed.
Q. If I have an upcoming Fall assignment in Firelands, can I be placed in the same room for the summer?
A. It depends on a few circumstances, but we will try to place Fall Firelands residents in the same room for the summer.
Q. I want to return early for the fall semester. Should I submit my request using the Summer Housing Registration?
A. Residence Life is currently not accepting summer housing registrations for dates starting in August. Students wishing to return early for the fall semester should submit their request through the Fall Early Arrival Registration Form once it becomes available.
