Room and Board Fees

All dormitory residents are required to purchase a meal ticket, See more information regarding prices for room and board.

Delinquent Accounts

Student disregard for payment of returned checks or any other direct obligation to the college or its affiliated entities will necessitate withholding of grades, credits, transcripts, diplomas, etc., and will impair eligibility to continue in courses until satisfactory settlement has been made with the Business Office. The college reserves the right to turn collectibles over to a collection agency for collection. The College does not extend credit to individual students for the purchase of tuition and fees, books, supplies or other costs incidental to student attendance at the College.

Eligibility for Payment from Federal or State Agencies, Loans, Grants, or Scholarships

Students who plan to attend CSI under a program provided by federal or state agencies must submit satisfactory evidence of eligibility for admittance under such a program at the time of enrollment. This may be accomplished by submitting official authorization from the agency at the time of enrollment or by direct advice in writing to the college from said agency prior to enrollment. Veterans' benefits are payable to the individual recipient. Therefore, evidence of this eligibility cannot be accepted in lieu of cash. Evidence of approved scholarships, grants, and loans from CSI administered funds will be accepted in lieu of cash. NOTE: In all instances, arrangements regarding any of the above must be made in writing prior to enrollment.
