Contracting Instructions
Apartment Transfers
Top 
If you currently live in BYU Student Family Housing and wish to transfer to a different apartment, you may do so after four months of residency in
your current apartment. A $50 transfer fee will be charged. To transfer, you must follow the same
Contracting Process
that new tenants do to submit an agreement for your new apartment.

If married, you may choose which spouse's account gets billed each month; however, we will only bill the account of a tenant who is enrolled in classes
at the University. All rental payments must be made to the currently billed account.

Contracting Process
Top 
Read all the instructions
BEFORE beginning the contracting process.
If you are engaged or married at the time you contract for an apartment, both Part 1 and Part 2 must be submitted before the agreement will be complete.
Part 1 should be submitted by a student who is or will be enrolled in classes at the University. This is the tenant whose account will be billed each
month. Part 2 must be submitted by the spouse/fiancé(e) before 3:00 p.m. Provo Time on the following day. The same person cannot submit both Part 1 and
Part 2 of the agreement, as both spouses are required to contract jointly for the agreement. This requires both spouses to have a valid, working Route
Y NetID. Make sure you both can log in to Route Y before beginning the contracting process.
Click here to create a NetID.
If you are a single parent with dependent(s), you only need to submit Part 1 of the agreement.
