Room Changes

During Semester Moves

Meet with your Resident Director (RD)

• Your hall staff will want to know if there are specific reasons you would like to move that should be addressed within the community.
• If your request to change rooms is approved, your RD will submit the request to be processed by the UND Housing Assignments staff. Requests approved after Wednesday will be processed the following Wednesday.

Room Change Timeline 

• Wednesday: If there is a space available based on the preferences you have indicated, you will receive an email offering you the space.
• Thursday: Deadline to accept or decline the space. Not responding in the allotted time will be the equivalent of declining the offer. You will receive an email confirming your room change with instructions on how to complete your room change, including your check-in to your new room and check-out from your old room.
• Friday after 4:30 p.m.: You may contact the Resident Assistant On-Duty for the building you are moving into. They will schedule a time with you that evening to complete the check-in process for your new room.
• Sunday before 10 p.m.: Check-out deadline from your former room. Deadline to complete your room change and check-out of your former room assignment. You must contact the Resident Assistant for your former room assignment to schedule a check-out appointment that occurs before this time. 
• Room changes are not complete until you have completed a check-out with the hall staff. 

Check-Out Information

When your scheduled check-out time arrives, all of your belongings must be out of your room. Your area should be clean and in the same set-up arrangements as when you moved in. When you check-out with your RA, please make sure you have taken care of the following items:

**Room changes that continue past Sunday at 10:00 pm are subject to an Improper Move-Out Fee of $50.00. Should you continue to occupy two rooms beyond that time, you will also be subject to additional fees including but not limited to re-core of room locks, cleaning and/or maintenance charges, etc.
