End of Semester Move Out

Moving Out of the Residential Community

Residents who have been approved to move out must vacate 24 hours after their last final or no later than 11 a.m. on Saturday, December 12. There are no exceptions and failure to comply with this deadline may jeopardize your ability to return for future years. Please make sure you make your travel plans accordingly. Below is information about moving out of the residential community and what needs to happen prior to moving.

How to Check Out Properly

1) Stop by the REACH Office located in Zinfandel Hall during business hours to update your card access to your room.  Because your card will be updated with your new check out date, we recommend doing this before you start packing.

2) Complete the EXPRESS CHECK OUT form online at the time of your departure. Log onto the ResidentWeb and go to Current Resident then Express Check Out.

Updating Mailing Address

It is your responsibility to change your mailing address, home address, and phone number. We will be using the mailing addresses listed on your MySSU to forward your mail. Change your mailing address no later then December 15, 2020. Your HOME address is your permanent home and your MAILING address is for payroll related documents, financial aid checks, and where you want your mail forwarded. If you don’t have a MAILING address, we will use your HOME address instead. REACH will inactivate your campus address starting December 15, 2020.

Return Room to Move In Condition

Start cleaning and organizing your stuff now! You are expected to restore your residence to a condition similar to the way it was when you moved in. Failing to clean will result in excessive cleaning charges. Reduce the amount of trash and recycling that is collected the last few days by disposing of items now. This will help with the overflow of dumpsters and trash cans during those last few days.

Room Inspections

University staff will start inspecting residences on Saturday, December 12. Staff will be inspecting all areas and especially paying attention to major damages like holes in walls, broken doors, bent screens, or cleaning problems like filthy bathrooms, kitchens, and carpet stains. While normal wear and tear is expected, a trashed and filthy home is not acceptable.

Paying your charges and Finalizing University Business

Once all the charges are calculated and finalized, we will email you an invoice which will be due in thirty days. Security deposits were not collected from the residents, which means all damages and excessive cleaning charges will be an additional out of pocket expense. Please make sure you have connected with all the appropriate offices and have completed everything that was needed.
