What happens to the housing contract if my student withdraws from UT Austin?

DIRECT ANSWER

UT's institutional rules provide a withdrawal process, including charges through checkout and normally $300 in liquidated damages for voluntary withdrawal.

For voluntary withdrawal during the contract period, UT's institutional rules say students normally pay room-and-meal charges through checkout plus $300 in liquidated damages and normally must move within 24 hours after withdrawing. If a student is released and then re-enrolls during the original contract period, contract liability can return. Required withdrawals have their own rules.
