Please consider the following eligibility regulations in order to sublet:

Please Note: The Housing, Dining, Hospitality (HDH) staff does not assign sublessor or sublessees. Therefore, it is your responsibility to interview and screen each party carefully.
Additionally, current residents must have their roommate’s (if applicable) approval and signature on the Sublease form before it can be finalized. The Housing staff recommends that current residents work with their roommate(s) prior to completing the Sublet application form to avoid any miscommunications and/or misunderstandings.

Please allow a minimum of two business days for the office to review and process sublease requests.
