A $500 confirmation deposit is required of all new first-year students to Seattle University for Fall Quarter. The confirmation deposit will apply toward your first tuition bill. Students who decide not to attend Seattle University after paying an enrollment deposit are eligible for a $200 refund until August 1st.
Pay your confirmation deposit via the Enrollment Deposit form. If you plan to enroll in Summer, Winter or Spring Quarter or would like to request a deposit waiver, please see "Summer, Winter or Spring" below.
Students attending Seattle University in Summer, Winter or Spring Quarter are not required to pay an enrollment deposit. To confirm your enrollment, you can submit the Admissions Response Form.
Exceptions to the enrollment 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.
