Health Insurance
All continuing students or newly matriculated students are required to have health insurance coverage. You will be automatically enrolled in the Student Health Insurance Plan unless proof of comparable coverage is provided and a waiver is submitted by deadline date.
Questions regarding health insurance should be directed to the Division of Student Affairs.
Payment Plan Fee
The Monthly Payment Plan is subject to a $50 service charge per semester. There is no fee for the Full Payment Plan.
The following are fees and deposits for which arrangement for payment must be made prior to the service.
Transcript
A fee of $5 is charged for each electronic transcript and $6 for each paper transcript. There is no charge for an unofficial transcript. A transcript is sent out only at a student’s request.
Housing Deposit
Half ($150) of first-year students’ enrollment deposit ($300) is automatically converted to a housing damage deposit that is returned to students when they graduate or permanently leave the College. Each year, residence hall damage charges are deducted from the deposit and students are billed to return the deposit to $150. The other half of the enrollment deposit ($150) becomes a housing deposit that becomes a credit on a student’s first bill. The enrollment deposit is non-refundable, and therefore the damage and housing deposits are non-refundable for new students who decide not to attend Harvey Mudd College.
Orientation Fee
Entering first-year and transfer students will be charged a $250 orientation fee.
