University of California, Santa Cruz: Can we sign an off-campus lease while keeping the dorm as a backup?
DIRECT ANSWER
Yes, that can create two obligations. An off-campus lease does not by itself cancel a UCSC housing contract.
Families should not treat an off-campus lease as a substitute for formal UCSC contract cancellation. Until UCSC approves a release under the housing contract, the student can remain responsible for university housing charges while also owing the private lease.
