Fall Graduates
I plan to graduate Fall Semester. How do I know I won't be charged for Spring Semester?
Congratulations on your achievement! We have a list given to us by the Office of the
Registrar that lets us know who will be graduating each semester. We want you to graduate
so there is no penalty if you cancel your contract due to graduation. Make sure you cancel your Spring Contract
within the Housing Portal and list "graduation" as your reason.
