Credit Cards are not accepted for payment of fees.
You should not carry a large amount of cash to Juniata.
Application and Costs
Contingency Fee
All Juniata students are required to pay a Contingency Deposit of $200. This will be returned to you at the end of your stay at Juniata if you do not owe Juniata any payment.
Health and Accident Insurance
You will be billed for the Juniata student health insurance if you cannot show proof that you have insurance coverage that meets the requirements. The costs for the Juniata health and accident insurance are: $173.00 / academic year; $95.00 / fall semester; $121.00 / spring semester & summer. Students with a J-1 visa must purchase the Juniata plan at $46/ month.
Room and Meal Plans
Students who live in the residence halls must choose a meal plan. Each residence hall has a kitchen that is available for students to use, but the kitchens are not equipped for daily meal preparation. Some exchange students are limited to specific meal plan options due to exchange financial arrangements.
Books
Textbooks for your classes will be expensive. You should budget about $300 for the costs of books each term.
(Intensive English students will not need to buy books.)
Travel
Please note the times when the campus is closed and you must leave your residence hall room. You should budget for travel during these times.
