New Fall/Spring Cancellation Policy

University Housing and Residence Life has recently implemented a new cancellation policy effective immediately. We have provided the detailed information, but should you have additional questions, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Please note: New students applying for fall 2010 and beyond are required to submit a $150 nonrefundable application fee. Students who have submitted the $150 application fee are not eligible for refund of the application fee upon cancellation of housing assignment. Students who have a $100 deposit on file are eligible for refund of deposit upon cancellation of housing assignment.

Fall/Spring Cancellation Policy for New Student Applications:

1. Ten percent (10%) of the housing assignment cost will be assessed to the student’s account if the student cancels their housing assignment after August 1. This also includes students who have an assignment but have not canceled or taken possession of the room.

2. Fifteen percent (15%) of the housing assignment cost will be assessed to the student’s account if the student takes possession of the room or after the first day of move-in, whichever first occurs, but prior to the last day to register.

3. Twenty percent (20%) of the housing assignment cost will be assessed to the student’s account if withdrawal from the university occurs within one (1) week after the close of registration.

4. Fifty percent (50%) of the housing assignment cost will be assessed to the student’s account if withdrawal from the university occurs within two (2) weeks after the close of registration.

5. No adjustment if withdrawal occurs thereafter.

6. For any other situations, not including withdrawals, the students must submit an Agreement Release Request.

Current residents with a $100 deposit will be grandfathered as long as their deposit remains on file. This policy is in conjunction with JSU’s current tuition refund policy for withdrawals.
