Senior Days will be held during the following dates and times this term:

Wednesday, January 18th & Thursday, January 19th

Students have the option to come in on one of the three days that is accommodating to their personal schedules, but are required to schedule their loan exit interview sessions with the Student Finance Office in advance. Please call Student Finance at (630) 652-8481 the week prior to the event.
