Entrance Fees/Deposits

A $400.00 non-refundable registration deposit is required of all students. Ordinarily, this amount will be applied as a credit to the student’s account. However, for students residing in a University residence hall, $100.00 of this deposit will be held as a room reservation deposit and, as such, will not appear as a credit on the student’s account. This $100.00 will be held in escrow as long as the student continues to reside on campus. Minor maintenance services and hall damages over and above the normal occupancy usage will be deducted from the deposit. When the student leaves the residence hall system, any unpaid charges on the student’s account will be deducted from the room reservation deposit first, then any balance will be refunded to the student.

First-Year Students: A $400.00 deposit is allocated towards tuition ($105.00), housing ($100.00), and Orientation events and programming ($195.00).

Transfer Students: The $400.00 deposit is allocated towards tuition ($205.00) and Orientation events and programming ($195.00). Should you request and receive housing, $100.00 will be redistributed from tuition to housing.
