No Show Day (Res Halls)

 

No-Show Day occurs on the first day of classes as a result of students who cancel their contracts at the last minute or fail to move in as required. University Housing then makes these beds available to applicants on the No-Show Day waitlist.

To apply for an available bed space, residence hall applicants without a contract must fill out the No-Show Day preference page in their AY 2023-2024 application. We will accept No Show Housing Requests in the Residence Hall Application beginning August 14th, 2023.

If you are assigned a space on No-Show Day, you will be notified by email after 1 p.m. on the first day of class. If you do not accept and sign the contract and pay the deposit by 8 a.m. the following business day, your offer will be canceled and the space will be offered to another student on the waitlist.

Additional details about the No-Show Day Contract:

 

  • If you are assigned a space, an email will be sent to your UTA email address with instructions on how to accept the contract and make your first payment(s).

  • You MUST pay the $150 deposit online when you accept and sign your contract as well as your first housing installment (see chart below).

  • If you do not accept and sign the contract and pay the deposit by 8 a.m. the following business day, your offer will be canceled and the space will be offered to another student on the waitlist.

  • The first housing installment must be paid before moving in.

  • If assigned a meal plan is required and the first installment of your meal plan is due before you can move into the Halls.

Any first-time students who plan to live on campus must comply with the meningitis vaccination requirements at least 10 days prior to move in. For more information on the meningitis vaccination requirements, go to https://www.uta.edu/administration/registrar/students/policies-procedures/meningitis. If your move in is delayed for failure to comply with this requirement, please note that you are still responsible for the financial obligations of the contract.

 

  • You must be enrolled full-time to be offered a contract.

  • Priority for assignment of applicants on the No-Show Day Waitlist will be based on the initial date of residence hall application if the No-Show Day preference page is completed prior to 11 a.m. on August 21, 2023; otherwise priority is based on the date and time the No-Show Day form is submitted.

  • If you are not assigned a room on No-Show Day, you will remain on the No-Show Day waitlist for space which may become available at a later date.

  • The No-Show Day Waitlist will be discarded after everyone has been offered a space or is no longer interested. After this waitlist is depleted, all assignments will be made first-come, first-serve.
  • Our priority is to find you an accommodation on campus that meets your needs based on space availability, but we cannot guarantee to meet your preferences. We only make one offer to students on the no-show waitlist before we move to the next person.

  • Occasionally, students move out and vacancies become available throughout the semester, so check back often if you have temporary accommodations and still desire a bed in University Housing.

    Mid-semester move-ins, and room or building changes are permitted as space is available.
