Incoming Residential Students
Beginning with the incoming class in August 2023, housing deposits ($250) will be accepted to secure a student鈥檚 spot in our residential facilities.

If a student chooses to cancel their enrollment after May 1, the housing deposit is forfeited.
Commuter Students
Additionally, a housing deposit will be required of any non-residential students (commuter/off-campus) who wish to apply for housing at any point. Commuter/off-campus students who desire on-campus housing must first pay a $250 housing deposit and complete a housing application in . A commuter/off-campus student will be assigned housing only after room selection for current resident students is complete and pending space availability. In the event there is lack of room availability, housing deposits will be refunded. If a student requests placement on a housing waiting list, the deposit will not be refunded or applied to current debt until removal from the housing waiting list is requested. After a commuter/off-campus student is assigned housing, if a student chooses to cancel their housing request prior to May 1, the housing deposit will be refunded to the student. If a student chooses to cancel their enrollment after May 1, the housing deposit is forfeited.
