Corporate Reimbursement
Students eligible for tuition reimbursement from their employers may request payment deferment up to the scheduled payment dates at the end of the semester.  A $20.00 per class corporate reimbursement fee will be assessed. Interest, at a rate of 1.5% per month, will be assessed to all outstanding balances after the scheduled payment dates.

To secure corporate reimbursement deferment, students must complete the requested information appearing on the registration form each semester. Students must indicate the amount of eligible reimbursement and obtain corporate authorization signatures. Those students eligible for partial reimbursement are required to pay their percentage or portion of the fees and charges at the time of registration. In your last semester, however, all fees must be paid prior to taking finals.

Enrollment Deposit
A $200 enrollment deposit for full-time Undergraduate students is payable to Ashland University by May 1 for fall semester or December 1 for spring semester. This amount is fully applicable to first semester tuition charges, and is not refundable to those who do not enroll, unless the enrollment is canceled in writing prior to May 1 or December 1, whichever applies. For students admitted after May 1, the $200 enrollment deposit is due two weeks after notification of formal admission.

Fraternity
A $50 per semester fraternity fee is charged to all students who reside in Olympic Circle fraternity housing, as a special use fee.  This fee is incorporated into the fraternity housing charge.
