Spring 2026 Move Out Steps

For Spring 2026, a Campus Living staff member will complete a move-out inspection of each room immediately after the move-out deadline. Students will not sign up for a move-out inspection and will instead use a form to document damages or concerns.

If you are concerned about damage to your room that you are not responsible for (broken or missing furniture, damage to paint), please complete the form your Area Director sends you via email.
1. If damage is found in a room, the charge for repairs, or to replace missing furniture, will be split equally between all roommates unless a student emails their Area Director to take responsibility for the damage.
2. Should you incur any housing fees during final inspection of the room, these fees will be considered immediately due to your student account. Please continue to monitor your student account and LC email through May for notifications regarding these costs. Any costs unsettled may result in a hold on future registration and escalated collections.
Return your key to the Odell Annex front desk, or the Odell Annex key drop box in the lobby. You have card access to this space after hours so that you can enter and leave your key. Do not leave your key with roommates, RAs, or Campus Safety. The Annex is accessible 24/7 via tap card access so you can return your key at any time!
1. Keys cannot be given to friends, RAs, or left in rooms.
2. Students who do not return their key to the Odell Annex upon move out will be charged a $150 improper check out fee to cover the cost of changing the lock and creating new keys.
Don’t forget to update your mailing address!
