UCLA Housing

Students attending Summer Sessions at UCLA are eligible to apply for On Campus Housing or Off Campus University Apartments. After you register for your courses and receive your UCLA logon ID and password, you may register for housing online through the Housing Office.

Information about room options and costs can be found under Summer Sessions Housing Rates in the Housing Web site.

If you purchase a summer contract for on-campus housing or the University Apartments, you will receive roommate, room assignment, and move-in information via email approximately two weeks prior to the start of your summer session contract.

Housing Cancellation Fees:

Cancellation prior to the beginning date of the summer contract:
Any cancellation request received prior to the start of the contract shall be assessed a $300.00 Contract Termination Fee. This fee will be deducted from the payment(s) made, and the remaining credit (if any) will be refunded.

Cancellation after the beginning date of the summer contract:
Students who fail to check in, but who are enrolled in Summer Session courses, will be held to the entire length of the contract. Students who fail to check in, and who are not enrolled in Summer Session courses, will be considered a "no show" and will be charged for seven days plus the $300.00 Contract Termination Fee. These fees will be deducted from the payment(s) made, and the remaining credit (if any) will be refunded.

Full Refund
A full refund will be issued if the contract cancellation is a result of circumstances beyond the student’s control (i.e. visa denial, medical problems). Proper documentation will be required.

If you are a registration center then all housing changes and cancellations must be submitted through the Housing Change/Cancellation Form online. If you are an independent international student (ie applying directly to UCLA Summer Sessions) then you must cancel your housing via the Housing Department website at www.askhousing.ucla.edu, submitting a request - this form will not be accepted!
