Room and Board Rates

Room and board must be paid before the first day of classes for all terms. Applicants for on campus housing must pay a deposit at the time the application is filed. The damage deposit is currently $200.00 (this amount is subject to change at any time). The deposit will be refunded, less any outstanding student account balances which includes damages, after the student moves out of campus housing.

For applicants deciding not to enroll, written notice of withdrawal must be received by the Residence Life Office by May 31st for the fall semester, and by November 30th for the spring semester. Failure to notify the Housing and Residence Life Office in writing by the deadline will result in the forfeiture of the deposit. (Exception: Should the applicant be denied admission, a full refund will be made without regard to dates.) Students paying on-campus tuition and fees are entitled to participate in all college activities and attend athletic events.

The housing contract is valid for the academic year. Students cannot cancel their housing application to avoid living on campus after the application is considered active. Students must submit a contract release request and be approved for a release in order to live off-campus after applying. Releases are not guaranteed. For students residing on campus, contract release requests must be submitted by the deadlines listed above in order to receive a deposit refund if approved. Please contact the Housing and Residence Life Office if you have any questions concerning this information.
