Deposits

Security Deposit:

The $500 security deposit is to be paid by each student attending Gettysburg College. This payment is placed in a non-interest bearing reserve deposit account. Security deposits are returned to the student account upon graduation or withdrawal from the College. At that time, the funds are used to satisfy any unpaid charges on the student's account, any remaining amount is refunded to the student.

Pre-Registration Deposit:

The Pre-Registration fee is billed to students in late February and is to be paid by the middle of March. (The payment is applied to the Student Tuition Account balance for the Fall semester.) Payment of this fee, along with a clear student account balance, allows the student to pre-register for classes for the following school year. If this pre-registration fee is not paid, a student may not be permitted to pre-register for classes.

If a student has not pre-registered for classes by the end of May, the student's status will be changed to inactive and the student will be removed from housing for the following school year.
