<p>For people that are still waiting on April 1st decisions from first choice schools, are you guys sending in housing contracts to U of I, or waiting to find out from the other school? I'm not sure what I should do because I'll definately be at U of I if I don't get into UVA, but that still is an IF.</p>
<p>I would apply for housing as soon as possible. While UIUC is not in my top 4, I applied for housing in January, since I believe you get a full refund if you decline their admissions by May 1st.</p>
<p>you do? get a refund?
can someone confirm this?</p>
<p>I'm not the best with legal mumbo gumbo, but according to a FAQ on <a href="http://www.housing.uiuc.edu/contact/faqs/index.asp?faq=contract#cancel%5B/url%5D">http://www.housing.uiuc.edu/contact/faqs/index.asp?faq=contract#cancel</a> you can.</p>
<p>Canceling your Contract/Leaving the residence halls:</p>
<p>Q: I will not be attending the University. How do I cancel my contract?</p>
<p>A: If you wish to cancel your University Residence Hall contract based upon one of the reasons listed in section 4 of the Contract, complete the online contract cancellation form and send supporting documentation to the Housing Information Office (e.g., letter from your department verifying graduation, study abroad or co-op). You will forfeit your $100 advance payment if you cancel after May 1. If you are not canceling your contract for one of the reasons approved in section 4 of the Contract, you are subject to a $2,000 cancellation settlement charge.</p>
<p>(For those who don't want to open up the PDF, not attending UIUC is under section 4.)</p>
<p>thanx!!! ^-^</p>
