If you are wishing to cancel your Residence Hall Contract, first determine which of the three categories below applies to you and then follow the instructions. If you have questions about your request to cancel, please speak with the Housing Business Manager, Mike Havard by calling 251-460-6185.
Students who have not taken occupancy of the room (have not signed for a key or moved in) may cancel at any time by submitting their cancellation requests online in PAWS (see “Steps for Cancellation Request Submission”). Students will receive the status of their cancellation request via University email. If your request is approved, you will be charged a contract cancellation charge based upon the term of your contract and the date your request was submitted.
Once occupancy is taken (signed for a key or moved in), cancellation is not guaranteed. Any student wishing to cancel their Residence Hall Contract should submit their cancellation request online in PAWS (see “Steps for Cancellation Request Submission”). Students will receive the status of their cancellation request via University email. If your request is approved, a contract cancellation charge, room charge, and meal plan charge will be assessed based upon the term of your contract, the date your request was submitted, and the date you vacate the room (room key returned & contents removed).
In order to be eligible for University Housing, a student must be enrolled at the University of South Alabama. At the point a student is no longer enrolled (including online courses), or if a student moves in and fails to enroll by the last day to drop/add classes (see University Calendar for dates), he or she will have a maximum of 72 hours from the time of notification of non-enrollment to enroll in courses at the University (if it’s prior to the last day to add classes) or check out of the residence hall. The student should submit their cancellation request online in PAWS as soon as they become non-enrolled (see “Steps for Cancellation Request Submission”). Students will receive the status of their cancellation request via University email. If your request is approved, a contract cancellation charge, room charge, and meal plan charge will be assessed based upon the term of your contract and the date your request was submitted.
