Deposits
All new full-time students are required to pay a non-refundable Advance Tuition Deposit of $500 upon acceptance to the University. This deposit is credited to the student’s account upon enrollment.
All returning resident students are required to pay an Advance Room Deposit of $250 for on-campus or $200 for Austria to reserve a space in a residence hall. This deposit is paid in lieu of the Advanced Tuition Deposit described above. When a student registers and moves into a residence hall as scheduled, this deposit will be credited to the student’s account. Returning students eligible to live off campus must notify the Student Life Office in writing by May 1 of intent to withdraw from housing. The deposit is forfeited if notification is not received by June 1.
Room and Board
Room and board includes meals and typically a double occupancy room in a residence hall. The Thanksgiving and spring vacations as set forth in the University calendar are excluded. Meals are available seven days weekly, with only brunch and dinner available on Saturdays and Sundays. All campus students in a residence hall must participate in a meal plan. Commuting students are welcome to use the dining hall, where meals are provided at a modest cost.
Contract Cancellation—Returning Students
Returning residents not required by the residency requirements to live in university residence halls may cancel this contract by August 1. Forfeiture of deposit and additional cancellation fees may apply. Written notice of cancellation must be made to the Student Life Office. Notification by other means or to other University departments will not be accepted and will not constitute cancellation of contract. The resident agrees to the terms of the contract until written approval has been given by the Student Life Office to cancel the contract. If the cancellation request is not made and received by August 1, the resident is obliged to the contract and all associated residence hall and dining fees.
Housing Deposit—Returning Students
Submission of the $250 housing deposit and the Residential Living Contract serves as a request for space in the residence halls for returning students.
If the returning resident eligible to reside off-campus releases the reserved space by written notice to the Student Life Office (postmarked no later than the dates given below), the housing deposit is refundable as follows, provided the resident has complied with the terms and conditions of the Residential Living and Meal Plan Contract and permission to be released from contractual obligations has been given.
If notice is received:
- After June 1, prior to July 1: $125 refund (50 percent of deposit)
- After July 1, prior to August 1: Forfeiture of deposit and additional $250 cancellation fee
- After August 1: Contract cannot be cancelled for any reason and student will be responsible for payment of all Residence Hall and dining fees.
If departure from residence halls results from academic dismissal, disciplinary dismissal, withdrawal, or non-enrollment for the term of the contract, deposit is forfeited.
The Residential Living and Meal Plan Contract is binding for the entire academic year (Fall and Spring semesters). Please refer to the Residential Living and Meal Plan Terms and Conditions for more complete information.
