New Student Enrollment Fee and Housing Deposit

Upon commitment to the University, each student is required to submit a non-refundable enrollment fee of $300, which is credited as a payment to the first semester invoice. Resident students are also required to submit an additional $400 housing and damage deposit, which is held in a separate account and credited back to the student at the time the student moves off campus and has completed their housing contract.

Student Enrollment Reservation Deposit

Each spring, the University requires all returning full-time undergraduate students to pay a $500 保留存款 to secure a place in the upcoming fall semester class. A student enrollment reservation agreement is emailed in March of each year to all students who are presently enrolled on a full-time basis. Payment is due upon receipt of the memo.

The deposit is considered an advance payment on the fall semester bill and is credited on the initial fall semester bill. The payment is an indication of financial responsibility. Please note that if the student is not returning to the University, the request for the return of the $500 must be made in writing by May 15. All deposits are considered earned after the May 15 date.

计费安排

The fall semester tuition bill is mailed in early July and is due Aug. 1. The spring semester tuition bill is mailed in late November and is due Dec. 15. The summer semester tuition bill is posted online in mid-May and is due by the first day of the term. Class attendance is permitted only for students who have paid the tuition bill in full by the start of class.

The 业务办公室 will send out a billing statement each month when there are charges due to the University. Please be aware that other charges such as parking fines, 遗失学生证, athletic uniform replacements, library charges and housing judicial fines can be included on the monthly statement. All charges after the initial semester statement are due immediately upon receipt.

  • 金融援助
  • 传统的支付
  • 每月付款选项
  • 家长贷款选择
  • 其他贷款选择
  • 信用卡选项

For more information, visit the 付款选项页面, which also contains information on family discounts and payment options for graduate students.

滞纳金

If the fall semester payment due Aug. 1 is received late, the following charges will be in effect:

  • 在8月. 1: $200
  • 在8月. 再加200美元
  • 秋季学期:总共400美元

If the spring semester payment due Dec. 15 is received late, the following charges will be in effect:

  • 12月后. 15: $200
  • 1月后. 6 .再加200美元
  • Spring semester: $400 total

The 业务办公室 will consider canceling late fees if the University itself caused a delay in delivering money to the appropriate place. If a student believes he or she is eligible for such a cancellation, the 业务办公室 should be contacted. A late application for financial aid by a student does not excuse late fees charged by the University.

Students whose bills are sent to a foreign country are responsible for late fees assessed when the billing address causes a late payment.

Delinquent Student Accounts

Students who fail to meet their financial obligations in accordance with established University regulations will have the status of their accounts reported to the vice president for academic affairs for appropriate action. This action may include cancellation of eligibility for enrollment in the current or future semesters. The University also reserves the right to withhold services such as grades, transcripts or participation in graduation exercises.

进一步, if the account remains delinquent (no payments) for six months, the University will submit the account to a collection agency for further action. The student will be responsible for the collection costs associated with servicing the account. Collection costs will significantly increase the student's financial obligation.
