A few things I wanted to add:
Enjoy college. Seriously, you only get it once, along with the stress, the fun, the relationships, the activities, etc. Do NOT let the last few months be that of bitter disappointments as so many other people have said.
As angry/hurt as you may feel, how much worse would it have been if he lied and said yes? At least he (seems) to be honest. It could be (normally I would said 'would be' but given you are soon going to graduated, the relationship could end naturally anyway) that things would be a hundred times worse and the hurt and anger that much greater if he lied to you.
As people stated, give time. As a friend of mine stated to me, if it's meant to be, it's meant to be. SOme people don't want to commit easily. It's like making a promise to an extent and some people don't want to make promises unless they are sure they can keep it (such as me). In fact, maybe he is concerned on what would happen if he said yes, and you both had jobs that placed a significant amount of distance between you. Long distance relationships are rough and he may be concerned in putting that type of stress on you.
As people stated, make sure you focus on YOUR interests. This takes some time to learn and understand, but it's so true. Sometimes, you have to ask yourself "What do I need to do for my future?". Whether it's graduate school, a job, or whatever, make sure that you have something set up in your future that you are happy with.
Again, this is different for different people. Six months MIGHt be too soon. However, you can't say "okay, you can't fall in life in six months" because honestly, it CAN happen. It just depends on the person and the situation.
Given that you are going on to the next stage of your life, see what happens as everyone says. If he truly cares for you and vice-versa, then he'll be there in your life. If not, then he won't.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
