Every summer, student housing communities across the country enter one of the most intense, fast-paced, and rewarding times of the year: Turn Season. At Student Quarters, we don’t just prepare for Turn—we plan, pivot, and perform with excellence. And we couldn’t do it without the power of partnership.
If you know, you really know. “Turn” is the brief but critical window when one academic year ends, the next is about to begin, and entire communities are transformed. It’s when we:
Deep clean and inspect every unit
Repair, repaint, and replace where needed
Upgrade spaces for new residents
Coordinate logistics across vendors, teams, and timelines
Do it all in a matter of days—with our signature SQuad mentality
It’s a high-stakes, all-hands-on-deck operation—and it’s when our SQuad shines brightest.
This level of excellence isn’t possible alone. We’re deeply grateful for our key partners who go above and beyond to help us make Turn a success:
EZ Turn – The brains behind our scheduling, tracking, and staying-on-top-of-it-all
CasaPerks – Keeping our teams fueled with perks and rewards when they need it most
HD Supply – Fast, reliable, and ready with everything from A/C units to cleaning supplies
Smarter Furnishings – Stylish, durable, and always on-time furniture solutions
Move for Hunger – Turning move-out into a mission by helping us fight food insecurity
Sherwin Williams – Walls, trim, and everything in between—paint that performs under pressure
Chadwell Supply – Dependable products and a team that truly understands student housing
Ferguson – From fixtures to appliances, they’re there when we need them
Lowe’s for Pros – A trusted partner delivering tools and materials where and when we need them
Turn is a challenge, but it’s also a celebration of what we do best: show up, solve problems, support each other, and set the stage for an incredible resident experience.
To our onsite teams working long days, coordinating chaos, and making it look effortless—you’re the heartbeat of SQ. We see you. We appreciate you. We couldn’t do this without you.
To our partners—you are truly part of our SQuad. Thank you for helping us make this Turn one of our best yet.
