Just like the move-in process, we want to make your move-out process as smooth as possible. In most cases, you must be completely moved out of your room and complete the checkout process prior to noon on the final day of your housing contract. Late stay options may be available at an extra cost and must be approved. Check your Purdue email and direct questions to your hall front desk or resident assistant (RA).

Effective May 2, 2022, if your assigned hall's main office is closed please use the following location for business/check out needs:

• Cary covers for Cary, Hilltop, Owen and Tarkington
• Frieda Parker covers for Frieda Parker, Winifred Parker, Honors, Windsor and Wiley
• Meredith South covers for Meredith South, Meredith, Earhart and First Street
• Hillenbrand covers for Hillenbrand, Shreve, Harrison and McCutcheon
• Purdue Village covers for Purdue Village and URBA locations
• Hawkins covers for Hawkins

If you need to stay after Sunday, May 8, 2022, at noon, but no later than Monday, May 16, 2022, at noon:

• Visit the housing portal and complete the late stay form (available early to mid April).
• You will be assessed a $32/day room only charge for staying late if you live in a traditional residence hall and do not qualify for a pre-approved late stay group where late stay fees are waived.
