Housing and Meal Plan Refund Policy
Before any charges will be refunded, a student must officially check out of his/her room. To officially check out, a student must contact a residence life staff member to schedule a check-out time, sign a room condition form after the staff member inspects the room, return all keys, and remove all personal belongings from the room. Housing and Meal Plan charges are refunded according to the following schedule.
Once a student is assigned to on-campus housing, the Housing License Agreement is in effect for the entire academic year and may only be terminated for the following reasons: the student withdraws from the University; or the student is required to live 30 or more miles away from Findlay in order to fulfill an academic program requirement (e.g., internship).
Requests to reside off campus or terminate a Housing License Agreement must be initiated at the Housing and Residence Life Office. All such requests will be referred to the housing appeals committee for review. Upon review, the committee will render a decision. This decision shall be final and is not subject to appeal. All students will be charged for room and meals until given permission, in writing from the committee, to reside off campus.
Calendar week is defined as Sunday to Saturday. Note for Spring 2026 only, a calendar week is defined as Wednesday to Tuesday.
