It's the end of the semester and it's time to add packing and moving out to your already long to-do list. With a 24-hour deadline after finals, procrastination is not exactly a choice with this chore.
When to Leave:
-Graduating seniors must be out of residence halls by 8 p.m. May 7, the evening of commencement.
-All other students must leave the residence halls 24 hours after their last exam or 8 p.m. May 5, whichever date comes first.
-Students who are not graduating seniors but are involved directly with commencement may stay until May 7.
-If you have to stay beyond a designated checkout time, contact kgray2@guilford.edu.
Checking out:
-All students must formally checkout by removing all personal belongings including, garbage, nails and tape on walls.
-Rooms must then be cleaned and checkout procedures can then proceed.
