<p>When should I pay this? I know the deadline is May 1st, but is it better if I just drop the 200$ right now? I'm still waiting for other colleges to accept me so I'm not sure. My dilemma is that UCF's summer term is limited, and I'm scared my slot will be taken away if I don't pay. Should I wait or should I pay to keep my spot and pick my classes earlier?</p>
<p>We are waiting to put the deposit and officially accept. I don’t believe that they can give away your spot until after the deadline.</p>
<p>However, it was HIGHLY recommended at the orientation that you pay the deposit for housing ASAP b/c there is not enough on-campus housing for everyone and it is first come, first served.</p>
