A Residence Withdrawal Form must be submitted to residence management. This form is available at the front desk or online.

Residence fees are refunded to withdrawn students solely in dated order of when they submitted their Residence Withdrawal Form, not according to when an individual space in residence is occupied. This means that the Residence Manager may move a student into any space in the residence as per operational requirements. Practically, this means that there may be a person living in what was your space, but because the residence has not yet reached your spot on the withdrawal list, you are not entitled to a refund yet. There are often internal moves in the residence that take place at various times of the year for roommate issues. You will be notified when your spot on the withdrawal list has been filled and a refund will be processed in a timely manner.
