UC San Diego Summer Housing

At the University of California, San Diego (UC San Diego), living on campus is an integral part of your education. UCSD offers housing to students enrolled in summer session and continuing non-enrolled students who are registered full-time during the regular academic year.

Summer residents enjoy the convenience of being close to classes, as well as recreational facilities around campus, including two swimming pools, jacuzzi, tennis, racquetball and volleyball courts. The popular La Jolla Shores beach is less than a mile away, and additional social activities such as cookouts, movie nights, and visits to local attractions are all available.

Single undergraduate students will be housed in the Thurgood Marshall Apartments, which are furnished units with kitchens and bathrooms. Double, single and deluxe single bedrooms are available. The bedrooms are furnished with a bed, desk, chair, closet, and bookshelf for each resident. Linens, blankets, pillows, dishware, and vacuum cleaners are also provided, however, microwaves are not. Laundry facilities and mailboxes are located within the buildings. All apartments are assigned by gender. A Dining Plan is included in the overall cost.

To apply for summer housing, download the Summer Contract Packet (containing Summer Session Residential Housing Contract and Personal History Form) located at the bottom of this website. Spaces are assigned after the packet and payment are received by the Housing and Dining Administrative Services Office.

Eligibility

To be eligible for on-campus housing during the summer a student must be either:

1. An enrolled Summer Session Single Student as defined by the Summer Session Office.
2. A registered UCSD Single Undergraduate Student as defined by the Registrar’s Office.

PRIOR to submitting your summer contract packet please make sure one of these eligibility requirements have been met.

If you do not fall within either of the above categories but will be affiliated with UCSD some time throughout the summer (visiting professor, intern, UCSD alumni), please contact Conference Services for assistance in securing Summer Housing: http://hds.ucsd.edu/conference.

Dining Plan

The Dining Plan amount is included within the room and board fees at a preset amount of $23.63 per day. The Summer Session regular dining program offers only “all-you-care-to-eat” meals at a set price per type of meal. Dining facilities will not be closed in between meal periods. If a Resident misses a particular meal period, a limited assortment of “grab and go” items will be available at Summer Conference Service Centers, Plaza on the Side, El Mercado, Earl’s Place, ERC Activity Center, and Club Med.

Dining Dollars are deposited on your UC San Diego Student I.D. card at the beginning of the term of this Contract and expire at the end of the term of this Contract, are non-refundable, non-transferable, and cannot be deposited to the TritonPlus program.

Non-UC San Diego students (such as international students or visiting students) who do not have a UC San Diego student I.D. card and will be attending Summer Session, will be issued a temporary dining card on move-in day. You will have one week to visit Student Business Services to turn in your temporary meal card and obtain your permanent campus I.D. card. Your Dining Plan will then be transferred to your UC San Diego student I.D. card.

The first Contract meal begins with dinner on the first day of the term of this Contract and ends with dinner on the last day of the term of this Contract (for detailed dining information, go to http://hds.ucsd.edu/diningservices/hours.html in mid-June for Summer dining hours).

Dining Rates for the meal periods are presently as follows:
Breakfast $5.45 Dining Dollars • Lunch $8.28 Dining Dollars • Dinner $9.90 Dining Dollars

Dining Locations for authorized residents will be any open UC San Diego Dining Facility located throughout campus, including Café Ventanas, Canyon Vista, Plaza Café, Sierra Summit, Plaza on the Side, Earl’s Place, ERC Student Activity Center, Club Med, and El Mercado.

Hours will be posted in each of the Summer Session Dining Facilities. All of the Summer Conference Service Centers will be open until 11pm.

Housing Contract Cancellation

(Prior to move-in dates or upon failure to take occupancy)

1. To cancel a Contract, Resident must notify HDH Administrative Services in writing, by fax, or via email prior to move-in day. Cancellation of the Housing Contract will be effective upon receipt of the request. Resident will be assessed a $100 Cancellation Fee, which covers a portion of the University’s costs resulting from the Resident’s cancellation after the specified dates. Because it is impossible or impractical to determine the exact damages, the Cancellation Fee is hereby agreed to be reasonable, and is accepted as the amount of liquidated damages.
2. Failure to cancel the Contract or failure to move-in during the specified dates will constitute a “No Show,” and the Housing Contract will be cancelled. The Resident will be charged the maximum amount of $100 as the Cancellation Fee.

Housing Contract Termination

(After move-in date or after taking occupancy)

1. All requests of termination of this Contract must be submitted in writing along with the appropriate supporting documents to HDH Administrative Services Office. Housing Contract Release Form is available at HDH Administrative Services Office. Once the termination request is approved, the effective termination date will be the date of the University approval. A $100 Contract Termination Fee will be assessed to the Resident’s student account and payable immediately. Because it is impossible or impractical to determine the exact damages resulting from Resident’s failure to fulfill the terms of this Contract, the Termination Fee amount is hereby agreed to be reasonable, and is accepted as the amount of liquidated damages.
2. Request of termination of the Contract will be reviewed on an individual basis. If Resident is under 18 years of age; request for Contract Termination must be accompanied by a written consent of the parent or legal guardian. Resident is responsible for room and board fees until the request is approved.

Resident must return the keys to the Residential Life Office. Without proper procedures, simply moving out or turning in the keys does not constitute termination of Contract or release Resident from contractual obligations.
