<p>Is there any way to have my financial aid cover this? Its kind of hard to come up with that kind of cash at this moment.</p>
<p>From what I remember reading in a different thread, you have to pay the fee up front and then you’ll get reimbursed later on.</p>
<p>You don’t exactly get reimbursed, but the $650 is basically your first housing payment. It goes toward your food/rent/utilities/internet for the whole year.</p>
<p>@op9no2 I know what you mean. Coming up with 200 something for orientation and 650 for housing was a real drag. Why must orientation cost so much, sigh.</p>
