All campus residents except for graduating seniors, Resident Assistants, and Circle Apartment residents are required to vacate their rooms before 3:00 p.m. on Saturday, May 11, 2019 unless they receive written approval to remain from the Office of Residential Life.   

As you begin to plan for Commencement/Senior Week 2019, please keep in mind the following on-campus housing guidelines.

If an individual student needs to remain after the move out deadline the student must submit a request for reasonable accommodation of their personal need (e.g., transportation). Additional details will be required to request more than one additional day to accommodate any personal need. Please note that the unavailability of housing at any non-Ithaca campus destination (e.g., off-campus sublet, summer internship/employment) is ineligible for Commencement Week approval.

If a student is required to remain on campus to fulfill student employment, academic, athletic or commencement-related responsibilities during Commencement Week (e.g., Commencement Concert, Senior Week Volunteer, post-season competition), your supervisor, faculty, coach, and/or IC staff member associated with that reason must submit a request for the student to remain longer.  They will need your email, ID number and departure date to submit the form. Note: It is recommended to submit a request for all your students without regard to whether they live on or off campus.

Beginning, Monday, April 1, 2019 you are able to request to stay for Commencement Week, visit this web page:
