Emory University: Can we sign an off-campus lease while keeping the dorm as a backup?
DIRECT ANSWER
Do not treat an off-campus lease as a backup plan while assuming Emory will release the on-campus contract.
The 2026–27 agreement specifically advises students not to finalize off-campus housing until they have written approval of a housing cancellation or release. Signing another lease does not by itself end the Emory housing obligation, so a family could become responsible for both arrangements.
