CSC offering housing and meal plan refunds

Students wishing to leave residence halls will be offered a prorated return on their room and board costs

Students wanting to move out of Chadron State College’s residence halls due to the COVID-19 pandemic will be able to get a refund on their room and board costs, according to the Nebraska State College System, Wednesday.

All of Nebraska’s state colleges will be offering a 60 percent prorated refund to those students who move out and complete necessary paperwork. Students wishing to move out  and receive a refund will need to contact the Housing and Residence Life Office at [email protected] by March 23, according to Jon Hansen, CSC vice president for enrollment management, marketing, and student services. Refunds will be prorated from March 15.

Students who choose to check out of the residence halls will be able to remove their belongings at a later scheduled date if needs be.

“Refunds will be processed according to checkout date and applied to student accounts,” a statement from the NSCS said. “If the refund results in a credit balance, the amount of that credit balance will be sent to the student at their permanent address on file.”

Students will be able to remain on campus if they choose, and will have access to dining services and other student services.

“We recognize that going home may be difficult, particularly for our international students,” the NSCS said. “If that is the case, students are welcome to stay at Chadron, Peru, or Wayne State College.”
