The deadline for such request from new students for release for the fall semester will be June 1. The deadline for such request for such release for the spring semester will be November 1.

If a student is academically dismissed prior to the start of the fall semester, the housing deposit will be refunded. If a student is dismissed at any other time, cancels his or her registration and housing, or decides to transfer, withdraw, or take a leave of absence, the charges and deadlines noted above will be enforced. Students who elect to move off-campus without prior written approval from the Office of Residence Life or who notify the College after classes begin that they will not be living on campus will be financially liable for the full amount of the semester’s housing fee.
