I emailed them but it said slow response due to heavy traffic.
We have the 100.00 acceptance fee credit but curious about the housing deposit?

Thanks

Thanks for posting this. I checked our statement of account as well and there is no credit for our $352 housing deposit. I too emailed them with that question. We’ve already paid what we thought was our balance so I’m thinking they owe us $352.

Pretty sure they apply the space reservation fee to your spring semester fee statement. From 2015/16 contract:

Ah, interesting way of doing that but it certainly seems to explain why it’s not currently showing.

So glad you asked this as I forgot about that. I will definitely look for it next semester.

I actually called them and it will be applied to spring semester of SOPHOMORE year (because of the 2 year requirement). She said it functions kind of like a security deposit in that it is refunded if the student fulfills the 2 year commitment. Word of warning: even though moving to Greek housing is an acceptable reason for moving out of the dorms, you will forfeit this deposit.
