This summer 1482 5th Avenue, which is located on the Parnassus campus, will be remodeled. It will be closed from July 6th - August 28th. Parnassus tenants who currently reside at 1482 5th Avenue must select one of the following four options:

Option 1) Leave UCSF Housing for the summer but move back into the same room when renovations are complete.

Tenants will be rent responsible until 1482 5th Avenue closes for summer renovations on July 6th. Tenants' new contracts will begin on August 28th, the day 1482 5th Avenue re-opens after renovations. Tenants' new contracts must begin on this date.

Option 2) Transfer to another UCSF Housing unit and not return to 1482 5th Avenue.

Tenants should indicate whether they are interested in the Mission Bay or Parnassus campus. Tenants will be invited to meet with the appropriate Assignments Coordinator on March 11th if they are interested in the Parnassus campus and March 23rd if they are interested in the Mission Bay campus. During this meeting, the tenant and Assignments Coordinator will discuss which units are available. Because of high occupancy rates, tenants will not be able to see units in advance. However, whenever possible, floor plans and descriptions of units will be available.

If the tenant finds a unit he or she likes, the Assignments Coordinator will record the tenant's choice. The Assignments Coordinator will send a contract to the tenant sometime between May 4th and May 8th. This contract will be due back to the Housing Services office on May 15th. If the contract is not returned by the due date, the tenant forfeits the apartment and must vacate on July 1, 2009.

Option 3) Transfer to another UCSF Housing unit while 1482 5th Avenue is being renovated and then return to current assignment after renovations are complete.

Tenants who select this option will not be able to select their summer housing assignment. The Parnassus Assignments Coordinator will notify these tenants of their assignment on or around April 17th. If a tenant selects this option, the tenant's summer assignment rent will not exceed the 2009-2010 rate he or she would be paying at 1482 5th Avenue . Tenants who select this option may be assigned a vacant space on the Parnassus or Mission Bay campus.

Tenants who select this option will move to their summer assignment on or around July 6th and will move back to 1482 on August 28th.

Option 4) Tenants who wish to end their contract on July 1, 2009 and not live in campus housing for the 2009 - 2010 term.

Tenants who select this option should elect to be a part of Group 6.

In order to be a part of Group 2b, you must return the Group 2b Housing Intent Form to Housing Services by Friday, February 27th.

Please note that on the Parnassus campus single students and single post docs may not move into Aldea San Miguel apartments. Additionally, single students and single post docs currently staying in Aldea San Miguel are not eligible to transfer to a different apartment within that complex.

Tenants who are renewing their contract or transferring apartments are not required to submit an initial rent payment!

Tenants in Group 2b who sign new contracts may cancel their 2009 - 2010 contract for any reason before June 1st. Tenants must submit a written request to Housing Services before June 1st in order to be released from their contracts.

Pharmacy 2 students: Pharmacy students entering rotations beginning Spring Quarter of the 2009 - 2010 academic year will know their rotation assignment by March 31st, 2009. Please carefully consider the location of your rotations before committing to live in campus housing for the 2009 - 2010 year. Contracts will not be cancelled after June 1st, 2009.

Students living in campus housing who are assigned to rotations outside of San Francisco beginning Spring Quarter 2010 are rent responsible for the duration of the contract through June 30, 2010; contracts will not be terminated due to the location of rotations.
