Notice to Students Terminating Occupancy in University-Assigned, Off-Campus Housing

Read this page carefully before completing the termination of occupancy form.

By completing the termination of occupancy form below, you are terminating your occupancy in Stanford University housing. This notice is to inform you that you are subject to the terms and conditions of your Stanford University Off-Campus Residence Agreement, particularly your responsibility to pay room rent. Due to the closing of this off-campus apartment program, we are allowing students to move out before the end of the contract, as long as notice is given prior to the move-out date.

We recommend that you read the suggested cleaning guidelines that we have compiled. We also recommend that you request a move-out walk-through with your on-site apartment manager. If they agree to do this (they are not required to do so), you should schedule it for the point that you will have your belongings out of the apartment, you have done the cleaning that you think needs to be done, but still have time to do additional cleaning. After you vacate your apartment, the complex will inspect your room/bathroom/apartment for cleaning and damages. If they determine that work needs to be done, you will be billed for the labor and any materials used. It must be as clean as when you moved in.

If you have any further questions regarding your obligations under the Residence Agreement or about check-out procedures (including the inspection of your room/apartment and the return of your keys), please contact:

Off-Campus Apartments Termination Policy

The Residence Agreement, in accordance with Stanford University housing policy, states that taking occupancy of a room under this agreement obligates you to pay the room charge for the entire term of your contract. You may only be released from your obligation to pay your room charge if you:

1. cease enrollment (graduate, stop out, take leave, or withdraw from the University) or
2. transfer into on-campus housing due to a marital/family status change.
3. have been notified by the Community Housing office that you are eligible to terminate for a date earlier than your original contract end date.

Release from your obligation to pay rent for any other reason is granted only upon successful petition to Community Housing. You cannot assume that you have been released from contract unless you receive written confirmation from Community Housing.

Please note that if you request an extension of your contract into the summer and the request is granted, you will be charged rent through the agreed-upon new contract end date, and will not be allowed to end your contract earlier than that date.

We recommend that you print a copy of this notice for your records before you complete the termination of occupancy form.
