Miscellaneous charges and deposits
- A $200 admission deposit is held as a contingency deposit and is refunded upon graduation.
- A $100 room deposit must be submitted to the Business Office on an annual basis to reserve campus housing for the upcoming academic year. This room deposit will be credited to your student account on July 1 as long as you return as a resident student. Students will be notified by Student Services of the deposit due date.
- A $130 health insurance fee is charged to your account at the beginning of the academic year. You may elect to waive this fee if you are covered under another health insurance plan. You must complete the online insurance waiver form by the specified deadline in September of each year. The specific deadline will be provided each year, when the college bills for fall tuition.
- As a full-time student you are allowed to charge college store purchases ($15.00 minimum purchase) to your student account. Cumulative monthly purchases are applied to your account at the end of each month.
- Returned checks are subject to a $20 fee. The fee will be assessed for each returned check, including checks on which payment has been stopped. Check-writing privileges are suspended until the returned check and penalty are paid in full. If you do not render payment when requested, administrative action may be taken to place holds on future registration privileges and release of transcripts. You may also face collection action for the unpaid amount. Check writing privileges will be revoked if a second check is returned.
- Late Charges of $75 per semester are added to the student account if payment in full (less approved financial aid) is not received by the stated due date. Monthly interest is charged at 1.5% on all past due balances. The late fee and interest charges will not be waived.
- Other miscellaneous charges may be applied to your student account throughout the academic year. These charges may include, but are not limited to, vehicle registration, parking fines, private music lessons, library fines and damage and disciplinary assessments. If you have questions regarding any one of these charges, please contact the originating department. Please contact the Business Office if you need assistance in determining the originating department.
