To reserve a place in the Fall\u00a0class and request on-campus housing, you must submit your deposit. You may submit your deposit electronically or by postal mail.<\/p>\n

If you wish to submit your deposit by\u00a0postal mail<\/strong>, simply return the Acceptance Card found in your admission packet to the Office of Admissions. Include a check or money order for $800 if you will be living on campus or a check or money order for $600 if you will be commuting.<\/p>\n

If you wish to submit your deposit electronically, visit the Pay My Deposit<\/a> page. It is important to follow (print) the directions found on the landing page before entering the payment portal.<\/p>\n

The deposit is credited toward the charges of your first semester of enrollment. If you wish to live on campus, this must be requested at the same time your deposit is submitted.<\/p>\n

Please be aware, while your admissions deposit portion ($600) is non-refundable, the housing deposit portion ($200) may be refundable if a written withdrawal request is received by the Office of Admissions by May 1. After that date the housing deposit is non-refundable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
