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 September 12.
Questions regarding health insurance should be directed to the Division of Student Affairs at 909.621.8125 or ealvaradoramirez@g.hmc.edu.
Fees and Refunds
All charges (tuition, room, board, fees and deposits) must be paid in cash ($U.S.), by checks drawn on American or Canadian banks, or money order (international, if appropriate).
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.
Following are fees and deposits for which arrangement for payment must be made prior to the service.
Transcript Fee
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 an additional $250 orientation fee.
Delinquent Accounts
Every Harvey Mudd student is responsible for meeting promptly any payment due to the College. The total charges on a student account for each semester, less financial aid, is the minimum amount due prior to the beginning of each semester per the due date on the Harvey Mudd College statement. A student account not meeting this requirement is considered delinquent.
A student whose account is delinquent is subject to a late fee charge of one percent of the delinquent amount. Students may be barred from classes and the dining hall or disenrolled. A student must pay in full the charges for any semester before he/she is allowed to register for the subsequent semester.
