Confirm Your Enrollment
A $500 confirmation deposit is required of all new first-year students admitted to Seattle University for Fall Quarter. The confirmation deposit will apply toward your first tuition bill. First-year students who decide not to attend Seattle University after submitting an enrollment deposit are eligible for a $200 refund until August 1.
Transfer students are required to submit a deposit for Fall Quarter. For more information regarding Transfer confirmation, visit the Transfer Admitted Student page.
Pay your confirmation deposit via the Enrollment Deposit form.
See the Confirm Your Enrollment page for more information.
Please note – graduate students are not required to pay a deposit.
The enrollment deposit can be paid by check (ACH) or credit card. More information about payment methods is available on the Enrollment Deposit page.
Exceptions to the enrollment confirmation deposit requirement are occasionally made for students with significant financial need, as demonstrated by the FAFSA report, and if recommended by the Student Financial Services Office. Typically, a waiver indicates that most costs are met through federal, state and Seattle University need-based grants and scholarships.
Students seeking deposit waivers should contact their assigned counselor after receiving their financial aid packages. For more information about enrollment deposit fee waivers, contact the Office of Admissions by phone or email at 206-220-8040 or admissions@seattleu.edu.
Please note – graduate students are not required to pay a deposit.
Students attending Seattle University in Summer, Winter or Spring Quarter are not required to submit an enrollment deposit. To confirm your enrollment, you can submit the Admissions Response Form.
