Each applicant accepted to a degree program is expected to pay a non-refundable deposit of $500 to reserve his or her place in the program. The applicant’s acceptance letter will contain a deposit deadline indicating when the deposit must be received by the University. Once the student enrolls in the program, this deposit will be applied toward the student’s account. Applicants who have paid the deposit, but decide not to enroll in the program, will forfeit the deposit. If that student is admitted to the same program at a later date, he or she will be required to pay the full deposit amount again. If an applicant is admitted to a program with prerequisites in progress and becomes ineligible for admission due to his or her grades, a full refund will be provided. A program deposit is not transferable to another professional program.
