Instructions for Summer Check-Out:

• Make sure to remove all personal belongings and trash from your room prior to your departure.
• Once you have departed, submit the required Check-Out Form which can be accessed via your Summer Home Portal. Filling out this form will shut off access to your room, so do not submit your Check-Out Form until you have departed your room for the final time.
• You are not required to physically check out with our summer housing staff. However, if you have been using a physical card to access your summer room, you must return this card to the Amsterdam Hall Front Desk (2350 H St NW) before you leave campus for the final time. 

We thank you for joining us on campus for the summer and hope that the following information will help you plan for a smooth and stress-free departure.
