December Graduate Housing Contract
If you will be graduating in December 2025, you must fill out a December Graduate Housing Contract. (If you graduate in December and complete a Full-Year Housing Contract, you will be billed for the Spring 2026 housing costs.) The housing cost for a December graduate is approximately $500 (pending the approval of the 2025-26 Housing Rates by the Board of Directors prior to the start of the 2025-26 Academic Year) more per semester than the standard housing rate but gives you the advantage of not being obligated to housing for the Spring 2026 semester.
Penn College offers a very limited number of December Graduate Housing Contracts, and they will be awarded on a first-come first-served basis. The December Graduate Housing Contract will be available on the Student Portal starting at 4 pm on November 18, 2024. Like the other housing contracts, you must submit a deposit for the contract to be complete. The deposit for students currently living off campus is $100, if you currently live on campus there is no deposit.
