Enrollment Deposit

Olivet Nazarene University accepts students on a rolling-admissions basis. More specifically, we admit students as soon as we receive all of their necessary information (application, test scores and high school transcripts). Once admitted, you may submit your enrollment deposit that signifies Olivet is one or your top choices!

There are several benefits for submitting your $200 enrollment deposit:

Orientation preference: The order in which you submit your enrollment deposit is the order that you are invited to orientation, where you register for your classes and select your dorm room.

Secure scholarships: Submitting your enrollment deposit allows ONU to reserve the scholarships you have been awarded.

Preparation: Submitting your enrollment deposit enables ONU to hold a spot for you, guaranteeing your place in the coming freshman class.

Refundable: Your $200 enrollment deposit is fully refundable through May 1st.

Your admission, financial aid, or scholarship offer will not be jeopardized if you wait until May 1st to commit to Olivet.
