$182/Week

Single Occupancy

$35/Day

*Private rooms are limited and are assigned on a first come, first serve basis.

 

If staying the full summer from opening day through intercession housing for fall, which is a total of 101 nights,  the total summer term charge is $2626 for a double room, and $3535 for a private.

The charge will be added to the student’s University bill in two billing cycles: May 4 through June 30 and July 1 through August 14.   Housing charges will be added to the students bill, and due according to the university’s payment due dates.


Summer housing fees will be charged at the time of check-in for the entire length of the summer, including the week at their fall assignment (if applicable).  If a student stays for only a portion of the summer, the rate will be pro-rated by days stayed in the summer hall and adjusted for date of checkout.

Fees will be added to a student's university bill, and will be due according to the university's tuition and fees schedule. 

A hold will be placed on the student's University account for failure to pay, which will prevent them from being able to register, drop/add classes, or receive transcripts until the fee is paid in full.
