Towson University: What does Towson’s retained contract say about the new-student housing advance?
DIRECT ANSWER
Under Towson's 2026–27 contract, spring credit of the nonrefundable advance requires continued University Housing. If the contract is cancelled under sections 17 and 18, an advance not already applied to spring charges goes toward the cancellation fees in sections 19 and 20. Confirm the student's contract and account; this is not a refundable private-rental deposit.
Towson's published 2026–27 university residence contract calls for a $350 nonrefundable housing advance payment from new incoming residential students. Section 4 says the payment is credited to the spring semester account if the student continues to live in University Housing. If the contract is cancelled for reasons in sections 17 and 18 and the advance has not already been applied to spring housing charges, it is applied to the contract cancellation fees defined in sections 19 and 20. Confirm the student's actual housing offer, contract and account before paying or assuming a refund. An advance that is credited to a later university account is not evidence of a refundable private-rental security deposit, and this overview does not establish every possible application or move-in charge. No individual bill, cancellation decision or private lease term is verified.
