Use the following tables to determine when records are eligible to requested to be disposed based on the retention codes and the years records are required to be retained.
Submit your Request to Dispose of Records no earlier than the month following the month the records are eligible to be disposed.
Fiscal Year-end Calculations - Use for FE
Determine when records are eligible to be requested to be disposed based on the fiscal year the record was created and the number of years after the end of the fiscal year records are required to be retained.
Current Fiscal Year Requests
Determine the earliest month/year records are eligible to be requested to be disposed. For example, if you have records that are classified as a series that has FE + 3 retention, when you request to dispose of those records anytime beginning in September 2019 through August 2020, you may request to dispose of records created through August 2016.

2020 Request to Dispose Calculations for AC, AV, CE, LA, US + N
For requests in 2020, determine the earliest month/year the records are eligible to be requested to be disposed based on the month/year the record was created or became inactive and the number of years (N) records are required to be retained. For retention by academic semesters, refer to Retention by Semester or End of Class below.
In the table below, find the month of your request in the first column and then find the corresponding retention years in the top row to determine the latest month/year from which records are eligible to be disposed. If your records require longer retention than 15 years, subtract the number of years of retention from the current year to determine the latest year from which records may be disposed, and then choose the month preceding the month of your request.
Submit your Request to Dispose of Records no earlier then the month AFTER the records become eligible for disposition.
The month of the request | Required Retention Years | 0 | + 1 | + 2 | + 3 | + 4 | + 5 | + 6 | + 7 | + 8 | + 9 | + 10 | + 11 | + 12 | + 13 | + 14 | + 15 |

Retention by Semester or End of Class
Retention requirements for academic records often are by end of class or by the last semester the student was enrolled.
