University of Tampa: Are the housing application fee and prepayment refundable?
DIRECT ANSWER
This answer preserves school guidance recorded on 2026-09-01. Follow the linked university sources for current requirements, costs and dates.
The new-student housing process uses a $500 deposit on file; refund or forfeiture depends on the student's admission, enrollment and housing circumstances.
The 2026–27 agreement describes the new-resident deposit as $500, consisting of the $300 admissions deposit plus $200 housing amount, and applies it to the first-semester invoice if the student remains enrolled. Cancellation or non-enrollment can trigger forfeiture under the governing terms, so families should review both admissions and housing deadlines before expecting a refund.
