We should see what happens in this new volume. Volume 1 took an entire semester but this new volume looks like it's going to be the beginning of the second semester since the tournament (which apparently will be the beginning of the final arc) is at the end of the year.

But since Monty already said that he has 10 seasons planned, I wouldn't be surprised if we were to reach graduation day. When that day comes, a lot of things will change and become darker. For example, Weiss will eventually have to take over her father's company leaving her no time to be part of Team RWBY anymore. The girls will eventually chose what to do with their own lives, maybe Ruby's dream to be a heroine will remain but Blake and Yang may take another road and move on with their lifes. Despite the name of the show is RWBY, the girls won't always be together and graduation day will be certainly the moment of separation for Team RWBY.
