A room advance deposit is required of all students living in campus residences. For entering students this fee is to be paid at the same time the enrollment deposit is paid, within 21 days following the acceptance. The room advance is held to reserve the student's dormitory space as long as the student continues living in the dormitory. It is refunded upon the student's departure from the dormitory. The room and board fee should be paid in full at the beginning of each term.
Any student living on campus is to participate in one of the three plans offered.
The 21 meal plan includes all meals Monday through Sunday. The 14 meal and 10 meal plans include any 14 or 10 meals of the student's choice during the one week period from Monday breakfast through Sunday dinner. Thus tuition pays only a part of instruction costs, including use of the Learning Resources Center, Field Education, use of the academic computing lab, and facilities provided for students not included in the cost of board and room. One half of the student activity fee is paid each semester at the time of registration. The funds are used for various student activities.
