To request an extension to stay past the residence hall’s closing date, please see below for information on submitting a Beyond Checkout request.
Beyond Checkout Requests
Students wishing to remain on campus past the official closure of the residence halls must submit a Beyond Checkout request in the Res Life Portal. Beyond Checkout requests for the Spring 2023 semester are now closed. If you have any questions, please contact residencelife@liberty.edu.
