Academic Affairs

Security Deposit

As described in the "Admission Information" section of the Catalog, a new student who has been accepted for admission is required to make a $200 enrollment deposit after notification of acceptance. After a student is registered, the enrollment deposit becomes a security deposit, and any residence hall damage charges, library fines, parking fines, or other campus charges may be charged to the deposit. Each student is required to restore the deposit to the $200 level at every registration period. Unless forfeited as described below, the balance of the deposit will be refunded to the student 45 days after he or she leaves the College.

At the time a student registers for the Spring Semester of each academic year, he or she must declare his or her intensions with regard to returning for the subsequent year. If he or she is returning, and the student's account is paid in full, the security deposit is held as a deposit for the following year and a housing application is issued. If a student's plans change after the declaration and a decision is made not to return to Hendrix, the student may obtain a refund of the balance of the deposit (within 45 days) by notifying the Office of Fiscal Affairs by June 1, 1/2 of the deposit if notification is made by July 1 and 1/4 of the deposit if notification is made by July 15. If notification is after July 15, if the student moves off campus during the academic year, or if the student withdraws during the academic year, the deposit is forfeited.

If a student is on a leave of absence from the College and decides not to return at the end of leave, the security deposit is forfeited.
