Fall Semester

Yes! UTSA Housing does not require students to be out of their space for the holiday breaks. Please note that during spring break the Roadrunner café will have modified hours.

Students are not required to move out of their assigned space during holidays or between the Fall and Spring semesters.

 

Students that have signed the contract must qualify for a cancellation. Within the contract the three reasons are:

  • The student no longer enrolled/withdrawing from the university.
  • There is a documented disability or medical condition requiring accommodation the University cannot provide.
  • The student enters military service or receives orders for active duty during the contract period.
The cancellation request form is available below and on the housing portal under the “Housing Forms” tab.

 

Cancellation Form

Yes! Students will be in the assigned space for both Fall and Spring unless they have opted for a room swap or room change.

Students graduating at the end of the Fall semester will be told about their specific move-out instructions based on when the university sets that date for fall commencement.

Spring Semester

Residents can return to campus at any time. UTSA ID cards will have a set deactivation date in January so students will need to check in and get their cards reencoded at their front desk.

Of course, students can stay in their space if they would like. Please note that during spring break the Roadrunner café will have modified hours in addition to the other campus departments.

 

Move out varies on the student’s contract which typically ends in May. You can find more information about Move Out on our webpage.

  • Clean and empty the unit of all personal items - Remove any items you brought with you or are trash.
  • Once you have emptied your belongings and are ready to depart, leave your room access card on your desk and we will retrieve it when we inspect your room following your departure.
  • Close your bedroom door so it cannot be accessed prior to our staff inspection.
  • Vacate the unit and make sure the unit door is closed and secure behind you.

After emptying and cleaning your unit, once you have vacated, please complete the Express Check-Out form below. You may also scan one of the Express Check-Out QR Codes posted through out each community.

Failure to follow the check-out procedures will result in a $75.00 Improper Check-Out Fee.
