Student Housing Costs

Student housing is available at our Cadillac, Muskegon, Owosso, and Port Huron campuses.  The rate for all housing options is $2,300 per semester; however, the rate may vary based on occupancy.  Contact the OneStop or Housing Departments for details.  A non-refundable Residence Hall Application Fee of $50 is required of all new students and due when the Residence Hall Application is submitted.  A non-refundable $100 pre-payment is required for each semester a student returns to housing and is due when the Intent to Return Housing Application is submitted.  The $100.00 returning student pre-payment is applied toward housing costs each semester it is paid.

Estimated food costs are an additional $1,000 per semester.  If for any reason a student leaves during a semester, there will be no refund of room fees for that semester. The room charge will be forfeited if a student is dismissed from the residence hall during a semester. Any damages to the room, its contents, or residence hall commons area will be charged to the student’s account upon termination of the residence licensing agreement. Special reduced-occupancy rooms may be available at higher rates. Contact the campus housing office for more information.
