Year 12 students at the failed Colmont School in Melbourne will be forced from their classrooms next Tuesday.
Senior students were given a grace period after the private school went into administration and closed last week.
In a letter sent by receivers today, it was confirmed their last day would be August 9.

The Year 11s will finish at the school on Friday.
The private school was one of the state's few International Baccalaureate (IB) World Schools, with the nearest school offering the same curriculum more than 50 kilometres away.
It follows furious protests and claims from parents that lifelines have been put forward to save the exclusive school.
A Department of Education and Training spokesperson has said it is working with Independent Schools Victoria on "contingency planning for students affected" by the school closure.
