LSU –
A registration fee of $125.00—living off campus OR $230—living on campus must be received July 23, 2007 at 4:30 PM. Between July 24 and 30, 2007 an additional $100.00 late fee will be assessed. NO applications will be accepted after July 30, 2007 at 4:30 PM.
Refund Policy:
1. Full Refund of $230 or $125: If PNM withdraws before July 30, 2007--late fee will not be refunded.
2. Partial Refund of 50% of original registration payment: If PNM withdraws on July 30, 2007 through August 6, 2007 (so she can be removed from res life spreadsheet)
3. NO REFUND for withdrawals after August 6, 2007 (unless authorized by the VP of Rec.)
4. Registration Refund of $125: If PNM has a death in family, severe illness, or other extenuating circumstances reviewed by VP of Recruitment AT ANY TIME. (ends on Sat. morning, August 25, 2007)
The housing portion is added because recruitment takes place before the dorms officially open. PNMS also get a T-shirt. I assume that the higher registration costs are partially associated with renting a processing center nearer the sorority houses. Panhellenic used to rent air-conditioned buses to shuttle PNMs from the Student Union to the row plus tents and fans.
I can understand why people would want a refund if they didn’t get a bid. However, the PNM still utilized the services provided by the fee: administration costs associated with recruitment, bus service, if applicable, Greek Life handbooks and so on. It costs money to conduct recruitment from whatever the source.
Southeastern Louisiana University used to charge a $45 registration fee. They reduced it this year to a non-refundable $15 processing fee.
