Financial Policies

Upon acceptance by the Admissions Office, each prospective student is required to make a $200 deposit. Upon enrollment, the $200 is deducted from semester expenses. In addition, all new resident students pay a $100 damage deposit (refundable when the student graduates or withdraws, minus any room damage charges). All charges are to be paid by August 10th for the first semester and by December 10th for the second semester. Each month, a service charge will be levied on all unpaid balances. The service charge is computed by a “PERIODIC RATE” of 1.5 % per month, which is an annual percentage rate of 18% applied to the previous balance.

A student will not be allowed to register for any subsequent terms if there is an unpaid balance on the student’s account. Degrees, grade reports, transcripts, and letters of honorable separation are withheld from those who have not settled their financial obligations to SJC including, if any, all collection fees, attorney’s fees, and court costs.

Allow at least two weeks for clearance if final payment is by personal check.

Remittance should be made payable to Saint Joseph’s College by bank draft, personal check, or money order and mailed to:
