I will be receiving a refund check from my graduate program in a month and will use it to pay the credit card that I will use to pay my undergrad (the rest will go into savings). Then I'll be free and clear and will only being using them for everyday purchases. I hope that made sense.
PLEASE tell me you have a scholarship or fellowship that is funding your graduate school, because where federal aid is concerned, there is no "free" aid like Pell Grants awarded to graduate students...only student loans.
In other words, if you are using refunds from student loans to pay off credit card and other debt, you really do need to formulate another strategy. The former basically amounts to robbing Peter to pay Paul and kicking a gigantic can down the road.
Note: This is brought up only out of concern, not to brow beat
+1000. Be careful OP.

Congrats on your approvals!
which CB did Upromise World Mastercard pulled? and what was your score? I'm assuming you don't have any baddies? -- Thanks!
No baddies. They pulled TU. I only have a FAKO score right now but it was 653 so probably +/- 20 or so points.
CreditCrusader, no worries. It's scholarship and stipend money. 
And my parents will be paying part of it as well.
Starting Score (January 2013): TU: 704, EQ: 679, EX: 687
