Deposit and Deposit Refunds

New Students

Applicants for both the fall and spring semesters are encouraged to pay the Tuition and Housing deposit by May 1. Deposits received after May 1 will be accepted contingent upon space availability.

The tuition deposit is $100 (with the exception of Nursing and Engineering Majors which require a $400 tuition deposit). An additional $100 housing deposit is required for all resident students. These deposits are nonrefundable.

Your deposit indicates acceptance of admission. Refer to your acceptance packet, which arrives in the mail, for the deposit amount, or contact your admissions counselor.

Returning Students

Tuition deposit

No longer required to be paid by our returning students.  

Note: Readmitted students must pay a $100 tuition deposit through their admissions process. Non-matriculated, to include dual enrollment, students must pay a $100 tuition deposit each semester through Admissions.

Housing deposit

$100 per academic year

Please refer to the Residency Requirement. This deposit is similar to a security deposit. It is held and applied against any dorm damages assessed upon departure. Credits will be refunded or applied against other balances.

Typically, deposits for the upcoming fall semester and summer sessions are accepted beginning February 1 and for the spring semester beginning October 1. Returning students can pay housing deposits online or through the Business Office.

Housing deposits are refundable upon written request to the Business Office (or Registrar's Office) and the Residence Life Office, respectively, up to the date indicated below.
