Housing & Dining Services

Reservations: Rates

The Board of Regents of the university approves the residence halls rates every year, usually in June.

Students in the residence halls will see their housing bill (combined room and board) included with their university tuition statement. Like tuition, housing bills are normally paid on a per semester basis through the Bursar's Office, not Housing & Dining Services. However, if students have a question about their housing bills, they can call housing's finance office for expert assistance.

A security deposit will be collected at the time an application is submitted. See Policies for more specifics on security deposits, refunds, and other billing questions.

Participation in the 19- or 15-Meals per Week Plan is mandatory for all new freshmen during their first year of residency.
