Pay Your Enrollment Deposit Fee
Last modified 9/20/2023
Newly admitted freshmen must pay a $150 non-refundable Enrollment Deposit to reserve their space in the freshman class. The Enrollment Deposit fee may be paid online, or by mail, but may not be paid over the phone.
Additional information regarding the Enrollment Deposit is available online at https://illinoisstate.edu/admissions/freshman-admitted/.
