Dormitory Fees

A $100 security deposit is required with the application for dormitory housing. The deposit is not to be construed as a partial payment. It is refundable when a student moves out of the dorm at the end of the term and there are no damages attributable to that student. A room down payment of $500 is required by July 15 to reserve a room for the fall term. Both the security deposit and down payment are forfeited if a cancellation of room assignment is not received by July 15th for the fall term and S/B December 15th for the spring term or if the student does not fulfill his/her contract. Upon acceptance to the dorm, the student is required to sign a housing agreement, a binding contract outlining payment and refund policies.

Room and Board Fees

All dormitory residents are required to purchase a meal ticket. For information regarding prices for room and board, contact the Student Information Office at 208-733-9554 ext. 2221.

Room and board may be paid in two installments. The first installment for the Fall term is due by July 1, and the remaining balance must be paid by 4:30 p.m. on the first day of the term. The first installment for Spring term is due December 15th with the remaining balance due the first day of the Spring term. A $50 late fee will be assessed beginning Monday of the second week of the term for any unpaid balance. The payment schedule is available in the Business Office. If a student moves from the dorm during the term, money paid for room, board, and deposit will be forfeited for that term. Room and board prices are subject to change but generally remain the lowest priced of any state institution.

Meal Plan Fees

Students or CSI employees may purchase one of the meal plans. Students may purchase 100, 150, 200, or 250 meals on a meal plan. Smaller packages may be available for students and employees. Meal plans may be purchased directly from our food service contractor. For more information, contact Tom Koemer at 208-732-6635

Late Fees

The minimum late fee is $50. The late fee may be increased by 1% per month.

Due dates for each semester are posted online and are available from Records and Admissions and the Business Offices.

Delinquent Accounts

Student disregard for payment of returned checks or any other direct obligation to the college or its affiliated entities will necessitate withholding of grades, credits, transcripts, diplomas, etc., and will impair eligibility to continue in courses until satisfactory settlement has been made with the Business Office. The college reserves the right to turn collectibles over to a collection agency for collection.

The College does not extend credit to individual students for the purchase of tuition and fees, books, supplies or other costs incidental to student attendance at the College.

Eligibility for Payment from Federal or State Agencies, Loans, Grants, or Scholarships

Students who plan to attend CSI under a program provided by federal or state agencies must submit satisfactory evidence of eligibility for admittance under such a program at the time of enrollment. This may be accomplished by submitting official authorization from the agency at the time of enrollment or by direct advice in writing to the college from said agency prior to enrollment.

Veterans' benefits are payable to the individual recipient. Therefore, evidence of this eligibility cannot be accepted in lieu of cash.

Evidence of approved scholarships, grants, and loans from CSI administered funds will be accepted in lieu of cash.

NOTE: In all instances, arrangements regarding any of the above must be made in writing prior to enrollment.
