Flexible Leasing for Visa-Contingent Residents

At Paseo on University, we are committed to supporting our residents through changing immigration policies. Our Visa Exit Clause offers flexibility and protection to international students whose visa status unexpectedly changes.

Visa Exit Clause Terms

No early termination penalties if your F-1 or J-1 visa is denied or not renewed.

Official government documentation must be submitted for review by property management.

30-day written notice to vacate is required.

If a co-leaseholder is not affected, the clause does not apply. A roommate change addendum will be required to release the affected resident.

Ask management for full details and documentation requirements.
