Interested in Hall or Room Transfer?
September 16, 2020
Are you interested in a hall or room transfer? The Fall 2020 open transfer period begins on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 and will continue through Friday, October 23, 2020.
Simply download the form, fill out completely, then submit the form to Student Housing beginning September 16th. All Open Transfer Request Forms must be sent to our UH email account at uhmsh@hawaii.edu. All transfer requests will be done on a first-come, first-serve basis and are based on space availability.
All residents must fill out their own individual transfer request form. For residents wanting to transfer with another person or in a group, all completed forms must have identical requests and be submitted together.
Please continue to check your UH email account for transfer updates. Prior to your transfer being approved, you will receive a Transfer Request Acknowledgment Form. This form must be signed and returned to Student Housing. If your transfer request is approved, then you will receive a transfer confirmation email. A move date and time will be scheduled for you and your account will be adjusted accordingly. You must completely vacate your room and follow all check-out and check-in procedures established by your hall staff. You will be responsible for paying any rent increases and meal plan changes, resulting from your transfer request.
If you should have any questions, please contact Student Housing Services.

Important Travel Update For Out-of-State Students
August 04, 2020
Aloha Rainbow Warrior! Details of the modified quarantine for out-of-state students have just been finalized.
It allows out-of-state students who tested negative for COVID-19 enter a modified “bubble” quarantine within the university community―releasing them to participate in classes and safe university-sanctioned activities―rather than a strict lockdown. No one other than the student is eligible to participate.
There are three travel options available to students that qualify you for the modified bubble quarantine:- Travel Option 1: You obtained a negative result for pre-travel COVID-19 test taken with 72 hours of travel to Hawaiʻi.
- Travel Option 2: You took a COVID-19 test pre-travel and awaiting a test result after arrival in Hawaiʻi.
- Travel Option 3: You did not take a COVID-19 test pre-travel and will take a test within 48 hours upon arrival in Hawaiʻi.
Please confirm your travel option. You may choose only one. Detailed requirements for the travel options are included in the form.
For questions concerning the modified quarantine program, please contact uhmq@hawaii.edu.

FACE COVERINGS – new Honolulu law (effective April 20, 2020)
Mayor Kirk Caldwell signed Emergency Order No. 2020-07 mandating O‘ahu residents wear non-medical grade face coverings while in public to further limit the transmission and spread of coronavirus.
Please see https://hnl.info/alerts/wcBody.php?i=14B for details and exceptions.
Beginning April 20, 2020, face coverings should be worn in all public and common areas within Student Housing Services. For residents who do not have face coverings, SHS will provide face coverings at the Gateway Community Desk.
