Common use of CONTRACT START AND END DATES Clause in Contracts

CONTRACT START AND END DATES. If a change in your marital or family status necessitates assignment to a different type of housing, you must immediately file a new application for the category of housing that now applies to you by completing the appropriate application in Axess. If the university is able to reassign you within a reasonable period of time, you must accept your new assignment. Your housing rate will change on the day you move into your new assignment. If the university is not able to reassign you in the type of housing appropriate to your new status within a reasonable period of time, you may petition to be considered for release from your housing contract at the end of the current academic term if you notify Housing Assignments by the fifth Friday of the new term. Students should not renew their current housing assignment if they plan to change status by the beginning of the next academic year, but instead should apply for the new category of housing. A student’s ability to change categories of housing is based on availability of space in the new category of housing and their Lottery number and priority level.
