Summer Housing Discounts offered
Students who take six or more credits during the 2021 summer term and live on-campus will receive an institutional discount of 50 percent on their housing costs, subject to availability. This brings the weekly cost down to $113.50 per week. Limited food service may be available on-campus on a cash basis—decisions are still being made in this area. Applications for summer housing are open now.
