Looking to change rooms in your current building?
If you wish to change rooms in 70 Amherst St., Edgerton House, Sidney Pacific, The Warehouse, or Grad Site 4:
- complete a Single Housing Internal Transfer Form (applications not accepted before August 31)
- you will be added to the transfer list and offered a new room via email if one becomes available
NOTE: Residents who transfer within these residence halls will be charged a $200 transfer fee to help offset the cost of turning over the apartment.
If you wish to change rooms in Ashdown House:

Assignments are based on seniority points earned through the length of residency and service as an officer. Contact the Ashdown House Executive Committee for dates of the next lottery.

Other Options
If you do not want to wait for the next scheduled transfer period, your option is to terminate your current assignment and apply for the next self-selection period.
Before terminating your housing, consider the risks:
You may not be able to get another on-campus housing assignment.
If you do not get another assignment you will have to find off-campus housing.
You will be subject to all termination policies including rent responsibility and possibly an early termination fee.
You forfeit all seniority you may have accrued while living in your current assignment.
