When are contracts mailed?
We are excited to announce that contracts will no longer be mailed, but will be available on our website in early February of each year for the upcoming school year! In order to access the contract packet you will need a username and password, which is mailed to all applicants before February. If you don't have an application with us yet, it is not too late! Just mail in your application with the $100 fee and we will give you a username and password to access the contract packet.

When do you fill?
Every year is different, but historically, we fill a week to ten days after UT sends out all of their acceptance letters. The date that UT sends these acceptances varies. We do suggest that if your #1 choice is UT, you should return your contract as soon as you hear that you have been admitted. We have found that many students have been informed of their admittance status online days before the notice actually arrived in the mail, so check online often! We cannot guarantee that spots will still be available at Hardin House, so we suggest that you e-mail or call us as often as you like to check on our availability. Once we are approximately 1/2 full you can check our website to see how many spots are still available! Just log on with your username and password to see how many contracts we have received. We will update the website on a regular basis, but please remember that the numbers shown may not reflect the exact total contracts received, as this number will be constantly changing.

Must I attend UT in order to live at Hardin House?
You must attend either UT or another local college to reside with us. We do have students who attend Austin Community College, which is located nearby.

Do I have to mail the photos and resumé with the contract? My senior photo isn't ready yet.
We strongly urge you to carefully read the checklist and return ALL required documents with the contract. If you don't have your final photos that you want in your file, we ask that you send ones that you already have now and you can always send replacement photos later.

Can I send three copies of the same picture or do I need three different pictures?
Whichever you prefer. The photos are placed in three different books for the staff to begin to learn the residents' names. Photos must be a close up of your face.

When do I finalize my contract with Hardin House? I have been admitted and have paid my enrollment deposit at UT. When do I need to pay/sign anything to reserve my room choice?
Contract packets are posted online during the first week of February for the upcoming school year. As long as you have an application on file with us for the impending school year, you will be able to access the contract packet using the username and password that we have provided to you. Some of you may be accepted to UT before February, but you will not be able to obtain your contract before that time. You do not have a space with us until we receive your contract and it is executed.

In our November letter we received the goldenrod sheet to verify our information and we returned it to you. Does that mean we have a place at Hardin House?
No. Verifying the information does not hold you a space. Only a signed and executed contract guarantees a space. We sign contracts in the order they are received. This information simply updates the data on your original application, so we can mail your contract to the correct address in February.
