Kennesaw State’s Office of Housing and Residence Life extended the deadline for students living on campus to pay their full semester’s rent until Aug. 8.
University Spokeswoman Tammy DeMel said the payment deadline was originally set for Aug. 1. The office extended the deadline after students showed concern over the early deadline. The extended deadline gave students who could not pay the full amount in one payment more time to explore and set up other payment options.
Although the final payment deadline was Aug. 8, students still have the option to work with the Office of Housing and Residence Life to set up monthly payment plans to pay their semester’s rent.
DeMel said the new payment schedule was implemented earlier this year as a way to create more consistency among the housing communities on the Kennesaw and Marietta campuses.
According to the 2018-19 Housing License Agreement, students residing in University Columns, University Commons, University Courtyard, Hornet Village Suites, Howell Hall or the Austin Residence Complex II must make rent payments to the Bursar’s Office.
Students living in University Village Suites, University Village, KSU Place or the Austin Residence Complex I must pay their charges through the housing portal.
