Recontracting Students

Congratulations on choosing to live in the heart of the Gator Nation Again!
RECONTRACTING STUDENTS

The Returning Student Room Sign-up process is for current campus housing residents that: want to live in campus housing for Fall 2012 / Spring 2013 are considering living in campus housing for Fall 2013 / Spring 2014. You do not have to re-apply for housing if you currently live on campus you only need to complete a new contract. If there is any chance that the current campus housing resident may require campus housing for Fall 2013 / Spring 2014, they are STRONGLY ENCOURAGED to complete the Returning Student Sign-up process since students can cancel with a cancellation charge.

Room Sign Up Schedule

Reserving a Space for a Roommate

Medical Documentation- Students with medical documentation must update it for each contract period to verify there are not any changes.

Please refer to the Room Sign-Up Schedule below to verify the date that your friend will be eligible to select the vacant space in your selected room.

You will have the opportunity to place a hold on the vacant space in your selected room for a roommate 24 hours before the date that they are eligible to select the room. Your friend must then accept the held space within the 24 hour window. If the student does not accept the held space within 24 hours the hold will expire and the space will be available to all other students participating in Room Sign-Up. Roommates new to Keys cannot be pulled into Keys unless it is also their class standing day.

1. Log into myHousing Portal with your Gatorlink information on your selection date and time.
2. Search for a room on-campus with more than one vacancy.
3. Selected that space.
4. Place a hold on any vacant spaces available in your selected room for your prospective roommates with their UFID number. Holds can only be placed for students with the same Housing Contract period.
5. See Examples below
6. An email will be sent to the other student(s) notifying them that a space is being held for them and that they have 24 hours to either accept or decline the space.
7. That student must sign on to the Housing Portal within 24 hours of the hold being placed (regardless of their Signup Date and Time), select the ROOM SIGNUP link and either Accept or Decline the held space. The hold will be removed from the vacant space if the student does not Accept/Decline the space within 24 hours, and will be available to other students in the room selection process.
8. A confirmation email will be sent to the roommate regarding the whether the student accepted or denied that space.
