Cancellations

UPDATE FOR FALL 2020:

Current residents who have been approved for Special Circumstance Housing (remaining on campus after September 6), may cancel their housing agreement up through September 15th without a cancellation penalty.  Cancellations received after September 15, 2020 will be subject to the $700 Cancellation Fee, and residents will be responsible for the pro rata housing charges for each night, up until their check-out date.

Residents who cancel their agreement must check-out no later than 48 hours after submitting their cancellation request. 

To cancel, please follow the instructions below (under Cancellation Process) to complete the cancellation request form.

NOTE:  Canceling a housing assignment for the Fall semester will also cancel the assignment for the Spring semester. 

Cancellations Summary

NC State resident students with a room assignment can cancel their housing agreement/assignment at any time, understanding that there are associated fees for cancelling.

First Year Students

The cancellation policy does not apply to first year student housing assignments prior to the first day of class, because of the First Year Live-On Requirement. If first year students do not wish to live on campus, they must complete a first year live-on requirement appeal. If the appeal is granted prior to the start of the semester, a cancellation penalty will not be assessed. If first year students cancel their housing assignment AFTER the first day of classes, a pro-rated charge will be applied, and the cancellation fee schedule below will be in place.

Room Selection Period

Fall Room Selection is generally held in early spring (February-March), where participating students have an opportunity to select their room assignments for the following academic year. Students who select housing during this period, whether through a manual or online housing process, or are part of a roommate group during an online room selection process, have 24-hours from the time of the selection or acceptance of housing to cancel their housing assignment without penalty. Cancelling a housing application during any part of the Room Selection Process removes the student from the Room Selection Process for that year.
