resident) may be possible after the room change process begins and if all parties are in agreement. Residents wishing to swap units must complete the appropriate paperwork

ROOM SELECTION PROCESS – The process for continuing residents to select on-campus housing for the academic year 2015–2016 will occur during spring quarter. Housing Services will provide information in February on its website about the process. Residents will have the opportunity to see some apartment-style units prior to room selection.
STUDY ABROAD, GRADUATION, INTERNSHIPS AND YOUR HOUSING AGREEMENT – Residents enrolled in a DePaul-sponsored study abroad program or internship that requires them to leave their on-campus housing assignment mid-academic year will not be responsible for any of the above cancellation fees, pending proof that they are enrolled in a DePaul-sponsored program. Fees will be assessed to residents who cancel based on a program that is not sponsored by DePaul University. A resident who graduates from DePaul University at the end of fall or winter quarter will not be assessed a cancellation fee. Residents must visit the Housing Services main office and meet with a staff member 60 days prior to canceling. The resident must provide enrollment papers with the dates when they will be participating in an approved program or provide proof of mid-year graduation.

TEMPORARY SPACES – If demand for on-campus housing exceeds supply, some confirmed students may be assigned to temporary rooms. Temporary rooms are study lounges located within the residential halls that have been
HOUSING AGREEMENT
refurnished into three-person residential rooms. These rooms are fully furnished and are private and secure from the main floor, just as a standard residential room. When a permanent room becomes available for a resident of a temporary room, he or she will be notified and required to move. Once a temporary room is completely vacated, the space will revert back to its original study lounge setting.
Students who are assigned to a temporary room are considered standard residents of the assigned room and are expected to comply with the housing agreement’s terms and conditions. These residents will be required to move during the academic year, generally during the first few weeks of fall quarter. When a permanent room becomes available for a resident of a temporary room, Housing Services will notify the resident in a timely manner, typically 48 hours. The notification will include the new permanent assignment, new roommates, their contact information and details on the moving process. Roommates of the new assignment will also be notified to expect their new roommate. Once notified, the resident of the temporary room will be required to move within the time period listed in the notification.
Temporary space residents will be issued a credit with the following standards:
• A 20 percent credit will be issued on room charges to all temporary space residents for the time period in which they are assigned to that room
Credits will be issued shortly after moving to a permanent space
Credits are only valid on room charges; dining plans remain at full charge
