Priority application deadline for all scholarships is February 15.
Proposed mandatory enrollment deposit of $100.00 to be paid by a specified date.
At this time, the University does not require an enrollment deposit. The lack of deposit makes it difficult to accurately project enrollment and plan for the incoming class. Research indicates the majority of schools require some type of enrollment deposit or fee when committing to attend the university. Requiring this deposit will help with projections and confirm students' intent to enroll. The $100.00 enrollment deposit will be applied to the student's tuition and fees once enrolled. If the student does not enroll, the student will forfeit the deposit.
