This checklist is provided to assist UCSF Housing Tenants with their departure plans.

Housing Termination Notice & Request Form

If you are an Aldea San Miguel tenant on the "old Housing Agreement" (you moved in prior to July 2005) or if you are on a Faculty housing agreement (and have fulfilled your 6-month obligation), you must submit a written 30-day notice of intent to vacate at least 30 days prior to your chosen date of move-out. If you are unsure of what type of Housing Agreement you have, please contact the Housing Services office.

All other tenants must move out and turn in keys by 11:00 AM on July 1 -- with the exception of those who have been granted an early termination or an extension. If you want to terminate early, prior to July 1, please contact Housing Services for policies and procedures.

Keys are due back to Housing Services by 11:00 AM on the termination date. If keys are returned late, you will be charged the pro-rated daily rent and any holdover fess that may apply (this may include, but is not limited to: cost of any legal and court fees; rescheduling service contractors; temporary shelter for any incoming tenant who sustains damages for delayed move-in; and excessive labor hours performed by UCSF Housing Staff). These fees commence at 11:01 AM on your move-out date.

• At least two weeks before your move-out date, call to schedule a preliminary move-out inspection at the front desk

  Mission Bay:	415-514-4550
  Parnassus:	415-476-2231

  Please note that this inspection is required by the Housing Agreement and is your right under California law. If you choose to not have a move-out inspection, you waive your rights to dispute any charges for damages or cleaning. By having a preliminary move-out inspection prior to departure, you allow yourself time to remedy any problems for which you may be charged. Preliminary move-out inspections will only be conducted through June 30th for July 1 departures.
