Deadline
for Cable Cancellations
Although
the cable service may be cancelled at anytime throughout the semester,
to avoid being billed the full rate or charged a prorated portion of the
fee, the online cable cancel request should be submitted as soon as possible
and no later than the first Friday after classes begin. Cancel request
received after the deadline will be processed with a prorated credit or
partial charge.
