Senioritis: A term used colloquially in the United States and Canada to describe the decreased motivation toward studies displayed by students who are nearing the end of their high school or college careers. It is typically said to include slowness, procrastination, apathy regarding school work, and a tendency toward truancy.
Many high school and college students find themselves in a type of lame duck situation: their plans are made and a new chapter in their life is about to begin, so finishing the current chapter (the current term separating them from graduation) becomes just a formality or "holding pattern."

Adj. The feeling that one has after applying or being accepted to college. WARNING senioritis may cause students to: loose focus, stop taking notes, stop bringing note books, stop bringing bags, not care at all about tests and grades, and feel massive urge to revert back to preschool behavior (this includes napping at inappropriate times, and coloring in hello kitty or disney princess coloring books).

A crippling disease that strikes high school seniors. Most cases of senioritis tend to start after college applications and mid-year reports have been sent in. This entails a student not doing any work whatsoever, dismissive attitude, increased absences, general laziness, an over-excessive wearing of sweatpants/sweatshirts & resentment towards taking all those hard classes to impress a favorite college which the student most likely won't attend because of how expensive it is. The only known cure to senioritis is a phenomenon known as GRADUATION.
