Kennesaw State University offers a Housing Payment Plan for those students living in on-campus housing. This plan allows students to breakdown their semester housing charge into 4 installments. To be eligible for the program, a student:
- Cannot owe a balance on their student account other than their housing charge (authorized financial aid will be considered towards payment).
- Pay the 1st installment of their housing charge (25% of their housing charge).
- For example, if their housing charge is $5,460.00, their student account balance must be $4,095.00 or less.
- If their housing charge is $4,029.00, their student account balance must be $3,021.75 or less.
- Cannot have a financial hold on their student account or owe a past due balance.
The Spring 2025 Housing Payment Plan application will open December 16, 2024, and close on January 10, 2025. Installment payments will be due on the 5th of each month for February, March, and April.
To enroll, please log into Owl Express, select the Student Services tab, and click Housing Payment Plan or view the link for instructions Housing Payment Plan Step-by-Step Guide. Please save or print the promissory note for your records. Once the enrollment for the plan has ended, you will no longer be able to access your promissory note online.
Special note, if charges are added or reductions are made to financial aid after the student signs up for the Housing Payment Plan, the student is responsible for paying the difference to be current on their Housing Payment Plan. This can include but is not limited to the addition of parking permits/citations, dining dollars, housing miscellaneous charges and bookstore charges. The student’s account balance must only reflect their remaining housing installment payments on the HPP due dates.
