Break Housing Information
Only designated residence halls (Halsell, Cauthorn, and West International Hall) will be open during Thanksgiving, winter, and spring break periods. Students assigned to Halsell and West may remain in their rooms during breaks, as the cost of staying in the building is incorporated into the rates for the academic year. Students in all other facilities may sign up for break housing in Cauthorn Hall as space is available. Students who are unable to leave campus during break periods are encouraged to live in one of these halls. Students can leave their belongings in their rooms during break periods, as long as their UHDS Contract is current. Break housing rates are incorporated into the room rates of Halsell and West. Residents requesting break housing in other facilities will be assessed an additional fee.
