<p>i remember paying about 3k as deposit before the fall quarter started. Now that freshman year is over, i wonder where my 3k deposit went? I received full financial aid and cal grant A, so I thought I would get back that 3k deposit at the end of the year, but my bank account hasnt received anything from ucla? does anyone know how to answer this?</p>
<p>that wasn’t a security deposit…that was an initial deposit</p>
<p>I think you’re getting confused on what that deposit means. It’s not a deposit where you’ll get your money back, it’s a deposit to dissuade you from cancelling your contract. That money goes towards paying for your housing fees.</p>
<p>I thought my financial aid cover that housing fees. And 3k for housing fees sounds a lot to me.</p>
<p>I’m not sure how financial aid works around payment deadlines because I don’t receive any financial aid (hooray for screwing the middle class). However, 3k is not a lot considering housing costs at least $10k for the whole year.</p>
