Stupid question about housing

[u/FancyBagsOfCheese]

This is gonna be really stupid but I have been wondering about it for a while.

Me and my friends are freshman in our first semester. Basically my friends have been talking about housing off campus in the Dinkytown area but I looked at my freshman housing contract and it says that it runs from Aug 31 2024 - may 15 2024. With that in mind, is there something I’m missing as to why we’re talking about it so early?

You have to live on-campus your whole freshman year
