Success Academy Additional Information

What are the costs?

  • Students will be enrolled in 6-7 credit hours. Tuition and Fees for the Summer Semester are approximately $2600. Students may apply their financial aid awards toward the tuition and fees costs.
  • Living on campus is highly recommended for this program. Students participating in the Success Academy will be housed in Freshman Hall and will have the options of a Private Bedroom for $1250.00 or a Shared Bedroom $1050.00.
  • Students living on campus will also be required to have a meal plan. The meal plan rate is $600, which provides 3 meals per day Monday – Friday only for 8 weeks. Students will be responsible for their own meals on the weekends.
  • Housing and meal plans can be covered by Financial Aid.   

Do I have to live on campus?

While living on campus is not required, it is strongly recommended. Students who live on campus have a higher retention rate than those who reside off campus, make friends faster, learn about themselves and how to live with others, and become engaged with the university much faster.
