If your federal financial aid analysis indicates that you are eligible for a Pell grant, you may qualify for a tuition deposit waiver.
If you have a tuition deposit waiver, you still need to confirm your acceptance to reserve your space before the deadline by submitting the Tuition Deposit Form.
Students who are offered the Pell Grant through Financial Aid may be eligible for a tuition deposit waiver. Students who request a tuition deposit waiver are reviewed on a case by case basis. From the time the request is received it usually takes 3-5 business days for review/approval or an inquiry for more information. Students will receive an email once approved and will see the tuition deposit checklist item in OwlDone satisfied once this is approved.
If after your financial aid is applied to your balance for tuition and fees, you have any funding unused, it will be refunded back to you after classes begin.

It depends. If this is the first time you have changed your term of entry, you will not need to pay your tuition deposit, but only if you submit the form during the first week of class of the term you have been accepted for. You may change your entry term once by submitting a change of entry form. This depends upon approval from the Office of Undergraduate Admissions.
However, If you have already changed your term of entry once, you will be required to submit an additional tuition deposit for your new semester of entry.
You may change your semester of entry by filling out a change of entry form.
