Question about living on campus..

Colleges and Universities A-Z University of Florida

<p>Is it possible to live on campus only for the summer B term? I want to live on campus during the summer in order to get more adjusted to the environment and make friends but for the fall I would live to live at University House or Jefferson.</p>

<p>bump... does anyone know??</p>

<p>Yes. Don't know the specifics but I would assume you just cancel your contract for fall and apply for summer.</p>

<p>Since you have to fill out two contracts, I would guess that you could just do Summer B. Given the shortage in on-campus housing in the fall, and the excess in the summer, I can't imagine they'd try to force you to stay on campus in the fall. Call the housing office to check..</p>

<p>Just remembered......at this point incoming freshmen don't have fall contracts yet, so I would call housing and see how to just apply for summer.</p>

<p>I'm in the same situation: I just want Summer B Housing, yet as an "incoming freshman" I have to fill out a contract for Summer B AND Fall/Spring 09.</p>

<p>In the agreement, the only way you can cancel is you pay the deposits for Summer B AND Fall/Spring 09, HOWEVER, you can cancel your Fall Contract before May 1st for Fall and be charged with a $35 or $50 fee (it depends if you're incoming or continuing). I believe the fee will be subtracted from the Fall/Spring 09 $200 deposit you sent to them, and they'll refund you the rest. As for the last part, I'm only assuming and I plan on calling them to clarify.</p>

<p>Off topic, but is summer B in 09 or 10? Why do they call it B anyways? Haha thanks :)</p>

<p>2009.</p>

<p>There is summer A, B, and C. A and B are 6 weeks and C (A+B) is 12 weeks. Depending on the content of the class they classes can be A/B or C. Gen ed classes are usually A/B. Classes such as microbiology, physics, biochem are all summer C classes. </p>

<p>This year:
A- May 12 -June 20
B- June 27 -Aug 8
C - May 12 - August 8.</p>
