Students living in traditional halls—LeCompte, Corcoran, Munroe, Ozanam, Seton and University Halls—are required to vacate their units no later than noon on November 20, 2024. Personal belongings may remain but access to these halls after noon on Wednesday, November 20, 2024, will not be allowed. It is imperative that move-out deadlines are met due to Winter Break. Residents who do not vacate their residence hall by the deadline will receive a $150 improper move fee.
A few items to note for Traditional Hall Residents:
- You must leave for Winter Break, but are not required to completely move your belongings out of your unit. Please refer to the Fall Quarter Closing Checklist.
- You are not permitted to enter closed residence halls during Winter Break, as your building access will be removed starting at 12:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 20, 2024.
- You should take home all day-to-day items, such as medication, computer/cell phone chargers, and perishable items.
- You must close windows and empty perishables from mini-fridges (if applicable) prior to departing.
- You do not need to turn in your key when you leave. Please hold on to your key during the Winter Break.
- If you do not intend to return after Fall Quarter (i.e., cancel your Winter Quarter housing agreement), you must move out of your unit completely. Please contact DePaul Housing at housing@depaul.edu immediately if you have yet to formally notify staff.
Campus apartments—Centennial Hall, Courtside Apartments, McCabe Hall, Sanctuary Hall, Sanctuary Townhomes, Sheffield Square, and University Center (Loop) will remain open during Winter Break.
DePaul Housing will also conduct information health and safety inspections of ALL rooms on the Lincoln Park Campus during the Winter Break Closure. This includes traditional halls that will be closed over the break.

New Winter Quarter Residents
Residents who are moving in starting Winter Quarter must schedule a move-in appointment prior to arrival. Move-in appointments information will be provided with your Winter Quarter housing assignment.
Returning Traditional Hall Residents
When returning to campus, residents should have their Blue Demon Card and unit keys to access their room. DePaul Housing is unable to provide extra assistance during the winter quarter return process, i.e., service elevators and access doors will not be available. If you bring family helpers (up to two) we will provide wristbands for them to wear, which will serve as in/out privileges at the front desk of your hall and will cover parking for up to one vehicle in the Sheffield Avenue parking garage.
